Deepening 5G technology penetration is amongst the primary growth drivers, as business houses and corporates look towards diversifying their future operations. By 2024, 5G networks shall cover 2/5^th of the globe, handing a quarter of all mobile traffic data. Thus, production of wafers to manufacture ICs for 5G devices is rising.

Manufacturers are increasingly preferring gallium nitride semiconductor chips over the conventional silicon based chips, as the latter tends to have less temperature tolerance.

“Growing penetration of automation is accelerating demand for self-driven vehicles, an application area which is anticipated to generate lucrative growth prospects for leading semiconductor wafer manufacturers,” remarks the FMI analyst.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The novel coronavirus pandemic has ushered in multiple impacts across the global semiconductor wafers market. Stringent government-mandated lockdowns have contracted production of automotives, a key application area for semiconductor wafers.

A 16% decline was experienced in the global automotive industry since the past few months, thereby restraining sales of semiconductor wafers for multiple purposes such as infotainment systems, collision detection and navigation.

Simultaneously, surging sales of consumer electronic products is keeping the semiconductor wafers market demand afloat, particularly across emerging economies. With mandatory lockdowns imposed, corporate entities, educational institutions and entertainment houses are encouraging virtual interactions, thus upscaling demand for smartphones, tablets and laptops.

Taking the aforementioned trends into account, the semiconductor wafers market is likely to experience a moderate dip in the short-run, after which growth is expected to rebound on the back of easing restrictions.

Competitive Landscape

Prominent semiconductor wafers manufacturers profiled in the report include Applied Materials Inc., ASM International, Nikon Corporation, SCREEN Semiconductor Solutions Co. Ltd., Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation, Tokyo Electron Limited, ASML Holding N.V., KLA Corporation, Lam Research Corporation and others.

In November 2020, Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation launched its 3D SEM CT1000 used for defect observation across semiconductors. The devices enables a three-dimensional observation of pattern and defects shapes occurring during the manufacturing process on wafers measuring upto 200 mm in diameter.

In December 2020, Tokyo Electron Limited (TEL) announced the launch of its CELLESTA^TM SCD single wafer cleaning system, scheduled to hit the shelves by January 2021. The product is a collapse-free drying method which uses a supercritical fluid and is expected to ease semiconductor wafer cleaning processes.
