"Innovative Market Solutions to Help Businesses Make Informed Decisions"
Semiconductor gases are used in the manufacturing of semiconductors. A substance with properties between an insulator and most metals is termed as a semiconductor. It is used in electronic components such as transistors, and modern connectors. High quality gases are used in semiconductor manufacturing to maintain these operations clean and efficient. Semiconductor gases enable wafers to develop oxide, poly films and nitride to alter the semiconductor's electrical properties. When dopant chemicals are accumulated on the surface and distributed through the surface, the oxide serves as a barrier. Nitrogen is the most used semiconductor gas in the electronics industry. Helium is used as refrigerant gas in the electronic semiconductor industry.
Increasing demand for the semiconductor gas has been driven by increasing demand from the consumer electronics industry, especially for LEDs and other display devices. The semiconductor gas market is highly competitive with a significant emphasis on price and R&D activities. Semiconductor, consisting of thermal insulation properties are expected to hold major importance in electronic industries. This is projected to fuel demand for semiconductors and display devices in the near future. It would further fuel the global semiconductor gases market. However, semi-conductor gases possesses high price, which further resrticts the market growth.
Based on type, the market for semiconductor gases is segmented into hydrogen, nitrogen trifluoride, chlorine gas, silicon gases, ammonia gas and others. Based on application, the market for semiconductor gases is further segmented into semiconductor, PCBs, displays, and others. From a geographical standpoint, the market is categorized into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa.
Key Market Driver -
