Research and Markets - Global Semiconductor Inspection Systems Market CAGR Growth of 11.74% by 2020 - Trends, Technologies & Opportunities Report 2016-2020 - Vendors: Lasertec, Carl Zeiss, JEOL

DUBLIN, October 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Semiconductor Inspection Systems Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global semiconductor inspection system market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 11.74% during the period 2016-2020.

According to the report, growing requirement of semiconductor inspection systems will be a key driver for market growth. The technical development in the electronics and semiconductor device markets is propelling wafer manufacturers to invest heavily. E-beam inspection equipment involves a high quality of inspection with a resolution of 3 nm.

At present, different manufacturing units prefer such equipment mainly for R&D purposes. This will have a moderately high impact on semiconductor foundries as such equipment works with a very high level of magnification. Furthermore, charge variation defects can only be inspected using e-beam equipment, which provides R&D engineers with detailed information on the minutest of defects.

Further, the report states that the capital expenditure of semiconductor device manufacturers affects semiconductor manufacturing equipment vendors. During the period of overcapacity, device manufacturers reduce their capital expenditure and demand for semiconductor manufacturing equipment.

This results in underutilization of vendor factories. During this cyclical period, customers reduce purchases, delay delivery of ordered products, or cancel orders. This results in reduced net sales and backlog, delays in revenue recognition, and excess inventory for the vendors, which act as a major challenge for vendors.
