Based on the material type, the report categorizes the global fab materials market into the following segments:

Silicon
Electronic gases
Photomasks
Photoresist ancillaries
Chemical mechanical planarization (CMP)
Others

The top three revenue-generating type segments in the global fab materials market are discussed below:

Silicon

“The fab materials market by silicon held a majority share in 2016 and is expected to grow at a moderate rate through the forecast period. The extensive use of silicon as a semiconductor material for discrete devices is expected to drive the market growth,” says Hitesh Bhatia, a lead analyst at Technavio for metals and minerals research.

Silicon wafers are the fundamental building materials for semiconductors, which are vital in the manufacture of all electronic goods such as computers, telecommunications products, and consumer electronics. They are used in the manufacturing of IC chips for electronic goods such as computers, laptops, smartphones, and other electronic devices.

Electronic gases

Electronic gases are the second most popular type of fab materials, used widely in the manufacture of semiconductors, ICs, LCDs, printed circuit boards, and LEDs. There are more than 30 electronic gases, which include both pure gases and mixtures of different gases. Some of the prominent electronic gases are nitrogen, argon, hydrogen, and helium. Electronic gases are used for oxidation, deposing, etching, sputtering, inerting, and doping processes. The increase in consumption of nitrogen and helium is expected to boost the growth of the market segment.

Photomasks

“The demand for photomasks is expected to rise swiftly from captive mask shops in the coming years, making it the fastest growing segment of the fab materials market,” says Hitesh.

Photomasks are plates that allow light to pass through a definite path. Currently, many semiconductor manufacturers prefer to produce the products in-house. The market for photomasks is expected to grow at a high rate because of advanced technology feature sizes and the increased production of photomasks in APAC.

The top vendors highlighted by Technavio’s research analysts in this report are:

Air Liquide
Hitachi Chemical
Fuji Incorporated
The Linde Group
Solvay
