The global atomic layer deposition market size is expected to reach USD 4.7 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 12.3% from 2022 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., Atomic layer deposition (ALD) market growth is significantly driven by the increasing semiconductor fabrication for chip production across the world. Growing research and development in renewable energy sources is another factor propelling the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Atomic layer deposition used in semiconductor chip fabrication allows the deposition of molecules at a specific space with utmost uniformity. According to the World Economic Forum, semiconductor companies are increasing the manufacturing throughput, contributing to strong growth. The rising demand for semiconductors is expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Increasing environmental concerns have led to the growing adoption of electric vehicles. In these vehicles, lithium-ion batteries are being used pertaining to their high energy per unit mass. It is used for the deposition of nanostructured materials during the manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries. Growing demand for electric vehicles and increasing research and development is expected to fuel the market growth.
Atomic layer deposition is gaining popularity in the medical industry with increasing research and development. Drug delivery, tissue engineering, and medical devices are some of the applications in the medical field. Growing government spending and rising research and development activities are expected to drive the use of atomic layer deposition during the forecast period.
The growing application of solar appliances is boosting the market growth. Countries like India and Japan, with high power costs, are increasingly funding the design of solar systems to cater to the growing energy need. Market growth was impacted negatively during the COVID-19 outbreak. As a result of the pandemic, industrial manufacturing was immobile and the supply chain was disrupted, which impacted global market growth.
According to the market's high level of competition and the number of companies, key players focus actively on mergers and acquisitions, product development, and geographical expansion to maintain their position. In March 2022, Tokyo Electron Limited declared to construct a new advancement facility at the Koshi Office of Tokyo to fulfill the increasing demand in the semiconductor market.
