photomask Market

The global photomask market was valued at US$ 4.0 Bn in 2018 and is expected to reach US$ 5.9 Bn by 2027 with a CAGR growth rate of 4.5% in the forecast period from 2019 to 2027.

Owing to the rapid rise in semiconductor and IC devices along with flat panel display devices, the demand for photomask which is used to imprint the circuit schematics onto the circuit board or display boards, is set to increase. Ongoing miniaturization of circuit boards has led to its manufacturing by layers. Each board layers have a unique pattern which are etched onto a photomask. Thus, with the ever-increasing layers in a semiconductor wafer, the demand for newer set of photomasks is also set to increase. Additionally, with newer display technologies such as the switch from LCD to LED or AMOLED screens is also going to create a strong demand of photomask from the flat panel display manufacturers.
