What Are The Factors Driving The Optical Critical Dimension (OCD) Measurement Equipment Market?
The rise in semiconductor production is anticipated to fuel the expansion of the optical critical dimension (OCD) measurement equipment market. Semiconductors, which offer electrical conductivity between that of conductors and insulators, are extensively employed in electronic devices to regulate current flow. There's an escalating demand for sophisticated electronics like smartphones, electric vehicles, and AI-powered devices, resulting in an upsurge of semiconductor production. The OCD measurement equipment assures precision and yields in chip creation by accurately measuring and maintaining the dimensions of minuscule circuit patterns. For example, the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), a US-based trade group, reported in May 2024 that global semiconductor sales reached $137.7 billion in the first quarter of 2024, a 15.2% rise compared to the first quarter of 2023. Therefore, market growth for the OCD measurement equipment is being fuelled by an increase in semiconductor production. The escalating demand for consumer electronics is expected to drive the growth of the optical critical dimension (OCD) measurement equipment market. Personal and daily use electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and home entertainment systems are considered as consumer electronics. The soaring adoption of smart devices and connected technologies in daily life is increasing the demand for consumer electronics. With the help of the OCD measurement equipment, consumer electronic manufacturers can ensure improved device performance and reliability through precise patterning and dimensional accuracy of microchips. For instance, according to the Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association, a Japan-based trade body, consumer electronics production reached $201.91 million (¥31,685 million) in February 2024, a rise from $149.27 million (¥23,425 million) in January 2023. Therefore, the burgeoning demand for consumer electronics is fuelling the growth of the optical critical dimension (OCD) measurement equipment market.
