Autonomous driving and IoT drive the demand for more advanced semiconductors, requiring more advanced equipment, presenting a challenge for manufacturers in selecting the right tools. Some of these innovations have impacts which might become new foundations for the next generation of semiconductor manufacturing, including 3D ICs, nanometer-scale designs, and EUV lithography. The market of semiconductor manufacturing equipment is driven by high-scale expansions in fab centers, increasing reliance on cloud computing, as well as a transition to electric and connected vehicles. Growing energy efficiency in manufacturing investment in advanced semiconductor manufacturing facilities, and shrinking chips are pressures on the market. These factors drive innovation and scalability in production while leading to an increase in the use of semiconductor manufacturing equipment across various industries.
The segments of the semiconductor manufacturing equipment market based on front-end equipment include lithography, wafer surface conditioning, wafer cleaning, deposition, and other front-end equipment. The back-end equipment segment includes assembly & package, dicing, metrology, bonding, and wafer testing/IC testing. The product type segment includes memory, logic, foundry, MPU, discrete, and analog, MEMES, and others. The dimension segment includes 2D ICs, 2.5D ICs, and 3D ICs. The supply chain participant segment includes IDM firms, OSAT companies, and foundries. Each of these segments requires precise semiconductor manufacturing equipment against performance standards and regulations.
Memory in the product type segment is expected to register the highest CAGR in the semiconductor manufacturing equipment market due to advanced production processes for chip design and the rising adoption of IoT devices and smart technologies. Some of the major manufacturing processes include photolithography, etching, deposition, and ion implantation. Photolithography equipment patterns the intricate memory cell structures, while etching systems remove material to define these patterns. Deposition tools are used to place thin film layers on wafers and ion implantation systems alter the electrical properties of the materials. Since the feature sizes of memory devices are so small, fine-pitch patterning tools are a key necessity. High-density equipment would support stacked die, 3D ICs, and other formats to meet the demands for compact memory with high capacity. The growth of this segment is driven by the increasing demand from consumer electronics, automotive applications, and data centers.
The metrology segment is likely to hold the largest market share in the semiconductor manufacturing equipment market as need for precision measurement and advanced detection grows. Metrology equipment measures and checks the physical size of semiconductor devices to ensure they meet the design specifications. This includes measurements, thicknesses, surface texture, and the detection of potential defects. The most widely used metrology tools are optical and laser-based devices. For metrology, semiconductors use SEMs, AFMs, and X-ray inspection systems. The semiconductor market really cannot afford to rely on low-quality and unreliable production. The factors driving the metrology equipment market include growing demand for high-precision measurements, breakthrough in technology with respect to measurement techniques, and yield and defect detection.
