With the development of microelectronics and wide acceptance of the term – nanoscience, ion beam technology has attracted great interest from the research community, and has gained broader applications in the modern industry. In 2018, the ion beam technology market exceeded a valuation of US$ 400 million, and continues to witness a growing number of players entering the market.

Ion beam lithography has been gaining higher preference over electron beam lithography; however, it has incurred a few limitations - high design costs and time-consuming process to pattern an entire semiconductor wafer. With the lack of standardization in the design processes and increased time-tomarket for ion beam technologies, key stakeholders remained focused on leveraging new opportunities in the emerging applications of this technology.

Ion Beam Etching Systems Capture Significant Revenue Share Ion beam etching systems continue to account for higher demand as compared to ion beam deposition systems. With potential application in micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) devices and the nano-machining of magnetic transducers, ion beam etching systems have also witnessed higher investments and innovation. Further, sensing the need for semiconductor manufacturers to develop devices with improved density, tight tolerance, and high yield, key market players are focused on providing systems that allow flexible configuration for both, advanced research and production applications.

boost the ion beam technology market, estimated to witness 8.5% CAGR over the next five years.

Considering the broader evolution of technologies and their applications, ion beam system providers are forced to innovate. Focus has been mainly shifted towards developing technologically-advanced ion beam etching equipment, due to the spike in the adoption of thinned wafers across various sectors, especially in modern-day smartphones, and the rapidly emerging trend of the miniaturization of semiconductor and electronic components.

Ion Beam Technology Market: Stakeholders’ Strategies to Secure a Strong Position As miniaturization has been proven to remarkably improve the performance of integrated circuits (ICs), and at the same time reduce the cost per information unit, the development of ion beam technologies has grown continuously. Constant evolution of the technology has also been observed, as highly-precise ion beam implantations are necessary for manufacturing miniaturized devices with improved performance. With the increasing intensity of competition in the ion beam technology market, product innovation and development, along with filing patents of the technology remained the key strategies of the market players. These aspects came into play when Hitachi HighTechnologies Corporation patented its ion beam system and focused ion beam apparatus, in December 2018 and January 2019, respectively. Such strategic moves will continue to influence other stakeholders to take new initiatives and build effective growth strategies.

Ion beam technology market players have been on a strategic partnership spree to strengthen their technical expertise and bring new products into the global market. For instance, in 2017, Meyer Burger Technology Ltd. signed a major contract with REC group for its existing and next-generation cell or module technologies. The company was also awarded a contract for the delivery and installation of its industry-leading DW 288 Series 3 diamond wire cutting platform. Further, product innovation through consistent R&D investments in the existing technology also remains a key focus area of market stakeholders.
