The North America Wafer Cleaning Equipment Market would witness market growth of 8.6% CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2030). In the year 2019, the North America market’s volume surged to 88.0 thousand units, showcasing a growth of 8.7% (2019-2022).
Various technologies, including wet chemical cleaning, dry cleaning, aqueous cleaning, cryogenic aerosol, and supercritical fluid cleaning, ensure the successful elimination and neutralization of these objectionable elements from the wafer’s surface. Single wafer cleaning refers to treating a single wafer at a time, whereas bulk wafer cleaning refers to the simultaneous treatment of multiple wafers.
The increased adoption of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) technology in both conventional and contemporary applications is fuelling this market. This growth is also a result of the expansion of crucial wafer cleaning steps. In addition, the rising demand for wafers with 3D structures and the increasing use of silicon-based sensors, processors, and diodes in Internet of Things (IoT) applications present market participants with enticing possibilities. With these wafers’ help, manufacturers can produce many devices in a single production batch. The evolution of semiconductor devices made using 300 mm wafers was influenced by this factor, which is one of its driving forces.
North America hosts numerous semiconductor fabrication facilities (fabs) producing a wide range of semiconductor devices, including microprocessors, memory chips, and sensors. Wafer cleaning equipment is critical in these fabs to ensure the cleanliness and quality of silicon wafers at various stages of the manufacturing process, such as after chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) and before photolithography. Moreover, the region is a hub for emerging technologies such as quantum computing, photonics, and advanced materials. It is used to develop and prototype components for these technologies. Therefore, with the growth of semiconductor usage in multiple sectors, the market is anticipated to grow.
The US market dominated the North America Wafer Cleaning Equipment Market, by Country in 2022, and would continue to be a dominant market till 2030; thereby, achieving a market value of $3.3 billion by 2030.
