The new report by EMR titled, ‘Global Silicon on Insulator Market Report and Forecast 2021-2026’, gives in-depth analysis of the Global Silicon on Insulator market, assessing the market based on its segments like wafer size, wafer thickness, wafer type, product, technology, application, and major regions.
However, one of the factors limiting the market's growth is issues related to the device's self-heating.Industry Definition and Major SegmentsThe development of silicon semiconductor devices in layered silicon–insulator–silicon substrate is referred to as silicon on insulator (SOI) to reduce parasitic capacitance within the chip, thereby improving overall efficiency.Explore full report with table of contents: https://www.expertmarketresearch.com/reports/silicon-on-insulator-marketBased on the wafer size, the market is divided into:200 mm300 mmBased on the wafer thickness, the market is divided into:Thick-Film SOI WafersThin-Film SOI WafersThe market is divided based on the wafer type into:RF-SOIPD-SOIFD-SOIPower-SOIEmerging-SOIOn the basis of the product, the market is divided into:MEMSRF SOIOptical SOIMemory DeviceSOI TransistorImage Sensor MarketsThe market is segmented based on technology into:BESOIELTRANSoSSiMOXSmart CutBased on application, the market is segmented into:Consumer ElectronicsAutomotiveDatacom and TelecomMilitary, Defence, and AerospaceIndustrialOthersBased on region, the market is segmented into:North AmericaEuropeAsia PacificLatin AmericaMiddle East and AfricaMarket TrendsThe COVID-19 pandemic is wreaking havoc on various industry verticals around the world, including retail, hospitality, automotive, manufacturing, and industrial.
Due to the imposition of lockdowns to contain the spread of the virus, educational institutions such as schools, colleges, universities, and research institutes in various countries around the world have been closed.
These devices depend on SOI wafers such as RF-SOI and FD-SOI to work.
As a result, during the COVID-19 pandemic, an increase in demand for these devices is propelling the SOI market forward.
Factors such as the time-consuming manufacturing process, raw material price volatility, and the high cost of raw materials, in addition to the intricate design required in product development, are all stifling the market's growth.Key Market PlayersThe major players in the market are SOITEC, Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., GlobalWafers, SUMCO Corporation, Shanghai Simgui Technology Co., Ltd., GlobalFoundries, STMicroelectronics, TowerJazz, NXP Semiconductors [NASDAQ: NXPI], Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Skyworks Solutions Inc., among others.
