Photoresist & Photoresist Ancillaries Market by Photoresist Type (ArF Immersion, ArF Dry Film, KrF, G-line & I-line), Ancillary Type (Anti-reflective Coating, Remover, Developer), Application (Semiconductor & IC, LCD, ), Region - Global Forecast to 2028
The photoresist and photoresist ancillaries market is projected to grow from USD 4.1 billion in 2023 to USD 5.3 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period. The growing demand for consumer electronics, such as smartphones, tablets, wearables, and IoT devices, technological advancements in the semiconductor industry, such as the development of smaller feature sizes, new lithographic techniques (such as EUV lithography), and the integration of advanced materials, drive the need for innovative photoresists and ancillaries.
By Type, G-line segment projected to have highest CAGR during the forecast period
G-line photoresist is a type of photoresist that responds to G-line ultraviolet (UV) light with a wavelength around 436 nanometers. One advantage of G-line photoresist is its cost-effectiveness compared to newer, more advanced formulations. Additionally, G-line photoresists are compatible with older lithography equipment that utilizes G-line UV light sources. This compatibility allows for leveraging existing equipment without the need for extensive upgrades or modifications. Owing to these properties these resists are the fastest-growing photoresist segment by type in the overall photoresist and photoresist ancillaries market.
Anti-reflective coatings are projected to have the highest growth in photoresist ancillaries in the overall photoresist and photoresist ancillaries market.
Anti-reflective coatings (ARCs) are frequently employed alongside photoresists to optimize lithographic processes. These coatings effectively reduce undesirable light reflections from the substrate's surface, resulting in improved pattern resolution and decreased process variation. By integrating ARCs with photoresists, the overall lithographic performance is enhanced, facilitating highly accurate patterning and increased process yields during the manufacturing of advanced microelectronics and semiconductor devices. Anti-reflective coatings are projected to account for the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
