New York City, NY, 13 December, 2019/ 24 Market Reports: The silicon on insulator market is estimated to reach USD 2.4 billion by 2024 from that of USD 0.8 billion in 2019 growing at a CAGR of 19.9% during the forecast period of 2019 to 2024. Effective use of silicon during the manufacture of thin SOI wafers, and low operating voltage and high performance of SOI-based devices are the factors that are driving the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Owing to the increasing demand for RF FEM in upcoming 5G technology as well as consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets, RF FEM captured the largest share of silicon on insulator market, in 2018 and the trend is expected to continue throughout the forecast period. By deploying SOI technology in SOI ecosystem, wafer manufacturers and foundry players are also taking initiatives for the development of RF FEM products.
The automotive application of the silicon on insulator market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The increasing investments being made by automotive giants and other business leaders for the development of Advanced Driver-assistance Systems and driverless cars are the factors that are driving the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The APAC region is expected to grow with the highest CAGR in the silicon on insulator market during the forecast period. The increasing investment by wafer manufacturers and foundry players are propelling the growth of the SOI market in the APAC region.
Owing to simple dielectric isolation, low power consumption, and the high-level of soft error immunity offered by the SOI, the technology is potentially a competition to bulk CMOS and Metal–Oxide–Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors. However, unlike bulk CMOS and MOSFET, SOI-based MOSFET offer high body resistance yielded floating body effects in SOI-based devices. These floating body affected SOI-based memory devices have high current consumption that can cause loss of information.
