Photomask Market Status (2016-2020) and Forecast Market Analysis, Regional Outlook, Segment Growth Potential, and Competitive Market Share Analysis, 2021-2027
Report Description
The global Photomask market size is estimated at USD 75.8 Billion in 2020, expanding at a CAGR 12.6% from 2021-2027 to reach 182.31 Billion USD in 2027.
Market Dynamics
The photomask market is expected to witness substantial growth over the forecast period. A photomask is essentially a "master template" of an integrated circuit design. A mask is available in a variety of sizes. The most popular size is 6- x 6-inch. A quartz or glass substrate serves as the foundation of a basic and simple mask. An opaque film is applied to the photomask. Other materials are used in more complicated masks. Previously, the phrase "photomask" referred to a "master template" used with a 1X stepper or lithography equipment. A "master template" used in a 2X, 4X, or 5X reduction stepper was referred to as a "reticle." The phrases "photomask" and "reticle" are used interchangeably nowadays. They are, in essence, the same thing.
The primary reasons driving the growth of the photomask market are the increased acceptance of consumer electronic devices, the increased use of automated systems across several business verticals, and the increase in demand for semiconductors. Furthermore, the increased emphasis on technological advancements such as the Internet of Things (IoT) fuels the growth of the photomask market. However, the complexity of the photomask fabrication process and the high cost of photomask manufacture limit market expansion.
The short lifecycles of electronic devices, high memory needs in small storage memory chip sizes, and the rising acceptance of such tools in semiconductor production sectors, particularly in developing countries, are a few drivers that are strengthening market growth for photomasks. Many companies, including Nippon Filcon Co Ltd., Taiwan Mask Corporation, Hoya Group, Photronics Inc., and Toppan Photomasks, are investing in photomasks because of the potential improvements in accuracy, operational efficiency, and timely order fulfillment, which will allow them to improve customer retention and compete more effectively in the market.
Segment Insights
The photomask market is divided into four types: reticles, 1x masks, copy masks, and others. Different types of photomasks serve an important role in assisting with the fabrication of ICs and other semiconductor devices. The photomask market is divided into two end-user verticals: the flat panel display sector and the semiconductor & IC. The photomask market is segmented by application into LCD displays, MEME, printed circuit boards, electronic circuits, and other microstructures. Photomasks are most commonly used in the fabrication of semiconductors. To create a full semiconductor material, a collection of photomasks is necessary.
Key Players Insights
The Photomask market is highly competitive in nature with the presence of local & international players. Major players in the industry engage in strategic merger & acquisition, partnership, and new product launches to remain competent in the market. For example, in April 2021, Toppan Photomasks, Inc., a subsidiary of Tokyo-listed Toppan Printing Co., Ltd., and GLOBALFOUNDRIES (GF), the world's leading specialty foundry, announced a multi-year supply agreement in which Toppan will supply GF with photomasks and related services currently supported by GF's Burlington, Vermont photomask manufacturing operation. Toppan will acquire some assets from GF's Burlington photomask operation as part of the arrangement. The arrangement will also enhance Toppan Photomasks, Inc. and GF's Advanced Mask Technology Center (AMTC) in Dresden, Germany. This purchase sets the path for the AMTC to receive further modern mask production tools, increasing capacity and guaranteeing the AMTC's long-term future as Europe's premier mask manufacturing facility.
