adds “Global Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI)
Market Growth 2019-2024”new report to its research database.
Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) is a semiconductor fabrication
technique developed by IBM that uses pure crystal silicon and silicon oxide for
integrated circuits (ICs) and microchips. An SOI microchip processing speed is
often 30% faster than today's complementary metal-oxide semiconductor
(CMOS)-based chips and power consumption is reduced 80%, which makes them ideal
for mobile devices. SOI chips also reduce the soft error rate, which is data
corruption caused by cosmic rays and natural radioactive background signals.
SOI, as the name suggests, consists of a top thin layer of
silicon and a bottom thick layer of silicon. An insulator material such as silicon
dioxide (SiO2) is placed between these two layers. SOI offers high performance,
low power consumption, and high speed compared to traditional silicon wafers.
All these factors make it an ideal choice for portable applications such as
mobile phones, portable digital assistants (PDAs), notebooks, digital cameras,
and others. These wafers were developed in the 1960s for defense and military
applications, and the commercialization of these wafers took place gradually
The growth of this market is propelled by the growth in the
consumer electronics market, low wafer and gate cost, low operating voltage,
and miniaturization of semiconductor devices.
Based on diameters, 200 mm SOI wafers held the largest share
of the SOI market in 2017. The market for these wafers is expected to grow at a
high rate between 2017 and 2025. 200 mm wafers are mainly used for
manufacturing RFSOI wafers, which are further used in smartphones for
manufacturing antenna switches and other important components. Currently,
virtually all the RF chips, including 2G, 3G, and 4G, are manufactured by using
200 mm SOI wafers. The improvement will be primarily driven by the growth in
sales volumes for 300 mm wafers and by controlling production costs on the
small diameter line that is running at full capacity. The loading rate of the
300 mm production lines improved significantly, but still remains globally low.
BESOI, ELTRAN, SoS, SiMOX and smart cut are the technology
segment of the market. Smart cut technology accounted for the largest share of
the SOI market in 2017. Soitec (France) developed the smart cut technology in
collaboration with CEA-Leti (microelectronics research lab). The licensing of
Soitec's Smartcutâ„¢ technology to other companies is anticipated to further
increase the SOI wafer supply.
Soitec, the world's leading provider of SOI wafers, has been
pioneering the SOI technology. This company accounted for more than 69% of the
revenues of the world SOI wafers market in 2017. The other key participants in
the SOI wafer market are SunEdison (acquired by Globalwafers Co., Ltd. in
2016), Shin-Etsu Handotai Co. Ltd. and a few others like SUMCO CORPORATION,
Ultrasil Corporation and etc. Manufacturer are focusing on strategies such as
new product launches, expansions, contracts, and collaborations to enhance
their product offerings and expand their business.
The computing and mobile segment accounted for the largest
share of the overall SOI market in 2017. Power consumption is one of the
burning issues faced by the consumer electronics segment. There are various
issues associated with the conventional bulk CMOS technology, such as slow
processing speed, high power consumption, low battery life, and soft errors
such as data loss caused due to cosmic rays and natural radioactive background
signals. The SOI microchip overcomes all these issues and improves the
processing speed and performance by up to 30% compared with the CMOS-based
chips; it also reduces the power consumption by up to 80%. These features make
it ideal for use in computers and cell phones.
Asia-Pacific is predicted to witness the fastest growth over
the forecast period owing developing integrated circuit industry. The leading
players are emphasizing on modernizing their plants in APAC and fab facilities
with advanced technologies. The countries such as China (Taiwan included) and
Japan have the largest semiconductor manufacturing base, which is further
helping the SOI market grow in this region. The increase in production
facilities, rising demand for consumer electronics products, and continuous
upgradation and improved efficiency of fab facilities are the key factors
driving the growth of the SOI market in APAC.
The key factors restraining the growth of the SOI market are
the lack of available IP ecosystem and the floating body effect. The floating
body effect is one of the major drawbacks of the SOI devices. It is the
dependence of body potential on the history of biasing.
