Global E-Beam Wafer Inspection System Market 2014-2018 To Grow With A CAGR Of 25.9% For The Period 2013-2018
M2 - Fri Jun 13, 6:49AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/hbmz2x/global_ebeam) has announced the addition of the "Global e-Beam Wafer Inspection System Market 2014 Report" to their offering. E-beam wafer inspection systems are gaining popularity among semiconductor manufacturers because of their accuracy and flexibility. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the researchers' team said: Currently, e-beam wafer inspection systems are being used in wafer inspection processes. It is expected that the systems will also be employed for three-dimensional through-silicon via inspection and extreme ultraviolet mask inspection during the forecast period. Thus, the increasing number of applications for the e-beam wafer inspection systems will tend to increase the customer base, which in turn will increase demand in the market. This is one of the major trends which will influence the growth in the market during the forecast period. One of the key challenges in this market is the cyclical nature of the Semiconductor industry that leads to fluctuations in the demand for e-beam wafer inspection systems. Moreover, in some cases the production of such equipment tends to exceed its demand.

2014 Report on the International and Chinese Semiconductor Equipment Industry
M2 - Thu Jun 12, 8:41AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/flk8mq/global_and) has announced the addition of the "2014 Report on the International and Chinese Semiconductor Equipment Industry" report to their offering. After two years of recession, the semiconductor equipment market is projected to achieve growth in 2014. In 2011, the semiconductor equipment market size hit a record high of USD43.532 billion, but it witnessed a drop by 15.2% in 2012 and a further decline by 8.1% in 2013. The reduction came mainly as the steep decrease of backlog orders from North America and South Korea. Notably, the contracted orders from North America resulted largely from the glooming PC market and Intel's reduction of capital expenditure for equipment, while the shrinkage of orders from South Korea was heavily duel to the suspension of investment in DRAM. The semiconductor equipment industry is experiencing ceaseless integration. Take Applied Material for example, it took over second-ranked Tokyo Electron in 2013, further consolidating its position with the market occupancy in the etching market on a big rise. The estimate shows that Taiwan semiconductor equipment market size will bag USD10.99 billion by 2014 and that the figure by 2015 will slightly decline to USD10.88 billion.

Global Rapid Thermal Processing Equipment Market To Grow At A Cagr Of 2.5% Over The Period 2013-2018
M2 - Thu Jun 12, 6:57AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/v9fzxt/global_rapid) has announced the addition of the "Global Rapid Thermal Processing Equipment Market 2014 Report" to their offering. Over the past decade, there has been an unprecedented growth in the adoption of mobile devices. This increased demand for mobile devices is leading to a consequential rise in the demand for semiconductor process control systems, as it is vital for the functioning of mobile devices. Semiconductor manufacturers continuously innovate in order to sustain competition, reduce manufacturing costs, and improve product efficiency. For instance, the chip features have reduced from 45nm to 22nm; DRAM memory manufacturers have shifted to 3x node production with development for 2x node devices, chips with high dielectric constant materials, and fin-fet or tri-gate transistors. All these innovations by the customers require highly complicated rapid thermal processing equipment. Thus, the increasing number of innovations by the semiconductor manufacturers will tend to increase the demand for rapid thermal processing equipment. One of the key challenges in the market is the cyclical nature of the Semiconductor industry. This has resulted in fluctuations in the demand for rapid thermal processing equipment.
