According to the latest research, the global Lithography Equipment market size was valued at USD 20363.94 million in 2022 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 9.44% during the forecast period, reaching USD 34987.95 million by 2028.
Lithography Equipment is used to print complex circuit designs on silicon wafers, the raw material for integrated circuits. A photolithography machine is the heart of the chip manufacturing process. It uses a technique similar to photofinishing to print the fine graphics on the mask plate onto the silicon wafer through light exposure. The lithography process determines the line width of the semiconductor circuit, as well as the performance and power consumption of the chip.
Opportunities and Drivers
5G brings transmission speeds beyond optical fiber to mobile terminals and realizes the interconnection of everything. The advent of the 5G era will cause a qualitative leap in life and production. In life scenes, holographic images enable 3D video calls, cloud VR to enhance gaming experience, high-definition video, telemedicine, etc. to change lives; in urban scenes, vehicle networks, smart security, smart grids, smart transportation, etc. create smart cities; in production One of the scenes realizes industrial automatic control, robot operation, drone distribution, intelligent planting and other technical applications, subverting industrial production. These are closely related to the Internet of Things.
Second, 5G network capabilities promote data diversification, high-speed processing, and deeper value, which is more conducive to the development of the Internet of Things. The 5G network facilitates the data collection process and makes the data more diverse. In terms of data processing, it first uses the more powerful computing power of the cloud in the edge data center for processing, and then sends it to the AI brain, which is faster. Driven by the combination of 5G and AI + big data, the development interface provided for vertical industries allows ecological partners to develop diverse industries for different industries.
As the Internet of Things (IoT), 5G, and other technologies continue to develop, the demand for semiconductors is also increasing. According to statistics, there are approximately 26 billion IoT devices in use worldwide, and the number is increasing every second. 5G is another key growth driver for the semiconductor industry. Diversification of device form factors, increased processing requirements, and storage of data means that the number of devices is increasing.
The growth in the number of lithography chip models is placing new demands on the chip's capabilities.
Thus, the introduction of technologies such as IoT, 5G, and others are expected to drive the global lithography equipment market.
Challenges
The prerequisite for the development of the lithography industry is that the technology needs to be passed. The technical barriers in this industry are too high and have long been monopolized by Dutch ASML companies. If other countries want to develop the industry, they need to build a solid technical foundation first. In Huawei, for example, TSMC stopped providing chips to Huawei on September 14, 2020, which means that Huawei will need a strong mainland chip maker as a backup, and the chip specifications Huawei needs are currently domestic chip makers cannot do. Therefore, breaking the technical barriers has now become a prerequisite for the development of the entire industry.
Secondly, the lithography machine is expensive, bulky, with many parts and high requirements for the environment. For example, EUV lithography machine, the wavelength of EUV is only 13.5nm, and the scattering and absorption intensity is large when it penetrates an object, which makes the light source power requirement of the lithography machine extremely high, in addition, the inside of the machine needs to be a vacuum environment to avoid the absorption of air to EUV, the lens and mirror system is also extremely precise, and the matching resist and protective film need more advanced technology to improve the yield rate, one lithography machine is also very expensive. The EUV photolithography machine weighs 180 tons, has more than 100,000 parts, requires 40 containers for shipping, and takes more than a year to install and commission. Therefore, this also means that the lithography machine has high manufacturing costs as well as transportation costs.
