The global epitaxial wafer market size reached US$ 3.5 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 8.4 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 10.2% during 2023-2032.
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.
