Wilmington, Delaware, United States, Sept. 29, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Transparency Market Research Inc. - The silicon wafer market was valued at US$ 5.4 billion in 2021. The silicon wafer market is expected to reach US$ 13.2 billion by 2031. Silicon Wafer market revenue will increase at a CAGR of 9.3% from 2022 to 2031.
Electronic devices are becoming smaller and more powerful, resulting in smaller transistors and other silicon wafer components. As part of this effort, current fabrication technology such as photolithography is pushed to its limits as well and new technologies such as ultraviolet (EUV) lithography are explored. In addition to developing advanced packaging technologies, manufacturers are focusing on improving semiconductor device performance.

There are several techniques involved in this process, including heterogeneous integration, chip stacking, and system-on-chip (SoC) designs. Scaling on a single silicon wafer can be overcome with these approaches. A number of alternative materials are being investigated to replace silicon in order to offer improved power efficiency, performance, and scalability.
GaN, nanotubes, and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are some of the more promising candidates for 2D materials, such as graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Due to their unique properties, these materials may enable devices to run faster and consume less energy. Global silicon wafer sales will continue to grow as Industry 4.0 technologies such as AI, IoT, machine learning, etc., are increasingly adopted.
