Physical Vapor Deposition Market Growth & Trends

The global physical vapor deposition market size is anticipated to reach USD 5.0 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 7.6% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing growth in the semiconductor & electronics industry, coupled with rising demand for physical vapor deposition (PVD) in the medical sector is expected to propel the market growth over the forecast period.

According to Semiconductor Industry Association 2023 report, the sale of semiconductors increased from USD 9.54 billion in May 2023 to USD 9.94 in June 2023 in the Americas, whereas the sale of semiconductors in Europe increased from USD 4.67 billion in May 2023 to USD 4.68 billion in June 2023, which shows an increase of 4.2% and 0.1%, respectively. As per the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS) and Semiconductor Industry Association, 2023, Asia Pacific dominated the regional semiconductor market with 61.7% in 2022, whereas Japan held 7.9% of the global semiconductor market.

The demand for semiconductors is increasing significantly worldwide. This is because the design of integrated circuits (ICs) is becoming increasingly complicated and advanced for enhanced services in electronic devices, resulting in the consumption of a large number of semiconductors. The semiconductors help minimize the production cost of ICs, reduce the time required for their mass production, and enhance the value of final products in terms of operations. PVD equipment is used in semiconductor fabrication for the deposition of thin film on semiconductor substrates. The rising demand for semiconductor fabrication is likely to increase the demand for PVD services over the forecast period.

Moreover, the rise in the global demand for consumer electronics can be attributed to the increasing per capita disposable income and high demand for advanced electronics. The surging adoption of electronic products for workplaces, daily use, and entertainment is expected to increase the global demand for semiconductors. This is expected to drive the demand for PVD equipment and services for the semiconductor fabrication process.

PVD is one of the most appropriate technologies for providing a wear-resistant, hard coating on medical devices and surgical instruments. Surgical tool ranges from traditional scalpels, and saws to horning tools; motorized drills, and retractors are coated with titanium nitride and aluminum titanium nitride to improve the sharpness and durability of the tools. Dental and orthopedic implants, biomaterials, and Bio-MEMS make use of thin-film coatings in order to improve the performance of the product. These aforementioned factors are expected to propel the demand for PVD in the coming years.
