Market Overview:
The global epitaxial wafer market reached a value of US$ 2.81 Billion in 2021. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach a value of US$ 5.49 Billion by 2027, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 11.60% during 2022-2027. Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic on different end use industries. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.
The epitaxial wafer, also known as epi wafer, is a layer of epitaxial silicon single crystal deposited on a single crystal silicon wafer. It assists in controlling doping profiles that are not achievable through traditional methods like diffusion and ion implantation. It is used in diode and transistor elements and integrated circuit (IC) substrates, such as bipolar and metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS). It is also utilized in power devices and energy-saving of various power-sourced items. Apart from this, it finds extensive applications in smartphones, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), gyroscopes, laptops, tablets and gaming consoles across the globe.
