It is widely acknowledged as a new solution for high voltage and RF components and offers a wide range of applications in MEMS, Power devices, Pressure sensors, and CMOS integrated circuit fabrication.

The increase in smart phone penetration and growing demand for low power and high-performance devices are the key factors driving the market growth of silicon on insulator. The silicon on insulator market is anticipated to grow owing to various benefits offered by the technology such as enabling continuous miniaturization, better radiation tolerance, improvement in bulk technology and capability of higher current densities

Furthermore, increasing demand for silicon on insulator from manufacturing industries such as automotive, consumer electronics and military and defence propel the market growth. The key players are majorly investing for product innovation and in R&D propel the demand for silicon on insulator in the forecast period

Global Silicon on Insulator Market Definition

Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) consists of a single layer of crystalline silicon separated from the bulk substrate by a thin insulator layer. They are commonly used in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) and advanced complementary metal-oxide-semiconductors.

Global Silicon on Insulator Market Dynamics

Drivers: Diverse benefits offered by the FD-SOI ecosystem is increasing the adoption of the technology for a wide range of applications

Fully Depleted Silicon on Insulator (FD-SOI) is a planar process technology that offers the benefits of reduced silicon geometries whilst simplifying the manufacturing process. This technology offers superior power and performance trade-off. FD-SOI has the potential to combine low loss, low crosstalk and high linearity components with high switching frequency capabilities as they are associated with a high-resistivity base substrate. This facilitates novel RF system-on-chip (SoC) devices for the next generation of wireless communication by integrating front-end module components such as switches, power amplifiers and low-noise amplifiers with mmWave transceivers and highperformance digital blocks. Furthermore, the ability to lower the supply voltage, although not necessarily as low as 0.4 V, can be difficult in applications in which power is a greater challenge than performance. Given that dynamic power scales with Vdd², FD-SOI’s ability to use a much lower supply voltage presents a unique advantage. All these attributes make FD-SOI a vital technology for a very large range of applications.

Restraints: High cost of the SOI wafers restrains the growth of the Silicon on Insulator Market

Although SOI significantly improves the performance of the chips produced, an SOI wafer is around four/five times between USD400 and USD500, more expensive than a bulk wafer, around USD100. The complex production techniques such as double patterning and more sophisticated and expensive production tools are the major reasons for the high cost of the SOI wafers. The higher cost of SOI wafer compared with a silicon wafer is a major reason as to why Intel and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (TSMC) rejected the FD-SOI approach and single-minded pursued the FinFET. Thus, the high cost of the SOI wafers is hampering the growth of the market. However, the increasing demand for power and reduction in energy consumption is anticipated to lower the impact of the restraining factor over the forecast period.

The 200 mm segment accounts for the largest market share, by wafer size

In terms of wafer size the global silicon on insulator market is segmented into 200 mm, and 300 mm. The 200 mm segment among the wafer size generated the highest revenue in the global silicon on insulator market. In 2021, 200 mm had a market share of 60.9%. The 200mm wafers are produced more than any other diameter around the world. Today, more than 70% of ICs in end user devices are being made on a 200mm wafer. The mainstream memory and microprocessor technologies have shifted to 300mm, while the ancillary device technologies stayed on the 200mm wafer node.

The wafers of this size are used for various applications that include testing and calibrating equipment and the devices used in the cellular phone or flat-screen television. The growing end-use industries for the 200mm silicon wafer is the major driver for the 200mm wafer size segment in the global silicon on the insulator market.
