Semiconductor Metrology and Inspection Equipment Market - Geographical Overview
The Asia Pacific is expected to witness a significant market share in the semiconductor metrology and inspection equipment market
The Asia Pacific is one of the prominent regions for the semiconductor industry in regards to manufacturing and usage. According to SIA, Asia Pacific is the largest regional semiconductor market, and China is the largest single-country market. Moreover, in the APAC region, the trend toward the multiple layer measurement is increasing due to the use of cluster deposition systems, where the lack of single layer measurement is driving the market. The region is witnessing development and innovation, for instance, in November 2020, Hitachi High-Tech Corporation announced the high-speed defect review SEM*1 CR7300. The CR7300 is a new model of review SEM that will contribute to the productivity improvement in the manufacturing of semiconductor devices.
