Many wafer players are also boosting their output to keep up with demand in numerous countries that are planning to expand their processes for the 300 mm wafers, that shall ultimately support the segment's growth throughout the forecast period.
Insight by Product
The global Silicon on Insulator Market is segmented based on product, into RF SOI, Optical Communication, RF FEM, Image Sensing, Memory Device, Power and MEMS. The MEMS devices segment is projected to have the greatest CAGR throughout the forecast period. MEMS (Micro- Electro-Mechanical Systems) devices, such as gyroscopes, accelerometers and pressure sensors are becoming increasingly integrated into various electronic systems and devices, such as tablets, smartphones and automotive systems. The growing demand for these devices is expected to drive the growth of the silicon on insulator market as MEMS devices rely on SOI wafers for their production. SOI wafers are used in MEMS devices to provide insulation and reduce parasitic capacitance, which improves the performance of these devices.
Insight by Application
The global Silicon on Insulator Market is segregated based on application into Automotive, Datacom and Telecom, Aerospace and Defense, Consumer Electronics, Entertainment and Gaming, Industrial, Photonics and Others. Consumer Electronics is expected to witness fastest growth over the forecast period due to the devices like smartphones, cable modems, tablets, wearables, laptops, televisions and set-top boxes use SOI-based wafers to decrease their size, cut their power consumption, increase their battery life and boost their operational speed. Additionally, these wafers have improved performance and are less temperature-sensitive.
Insight by Technology
The global Silicon on Insulator Market is segregated into Bonding, Silicon on Sapphire (SOS), Smart Cut, Epitaxial Layer Transfer (ELTRAN) and Separation by Implantation of Oxygen (SIMOX) based on technology. The bonding SOI segment dominated the silicon on insulator market as the main applications of bonding are usually in the areas of SOI devices and silicon-based actuators and sensors.
