Gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor have dynamic chemical and electrical properties such as saturation velocity and high voltage breakdown. Thus, they are suitable for use in various switching devices. Gallium nitride is anticipated to be the substitute to silicon, owing to its low power consumption capabilities and higher efficiency. Thus, gallium nitride semiconductor devices find their applications in communication devices, smart grid systems, inverters, electric vehicles and others in industries such as power, consumer electronics, automotive, and military. Innovations in the semiconductor industry will pave way for better gallium nitride semiconductor devices. The global gallium nitride semiconductor devices market is experiencing a significant growth, and will grow considerably in next few years.

COVID-19 scenario Analysis: 

• Global gallium nitride semiconductor devices market has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. New projects throughout the world have stalled, which, in turn, have led to decline in demand for analog semiconductors. 
• Global factories have struggled to integrate new gallium nitride semiconductor devices as workers have stayed in their homes, which disrupted the global supply chains. 
• The impact of COVID-19 on this market is temporary as just the production and supply chain is stalled. Once the situation improves, production, supply chains, and demand for gallium nitride semiconductor devices are gradually going to increase.  
• This COVID-19 lockdown would help companies think about more advanced gallium nitride semiconductor devices to enhance efficiency.

Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers, and Impact Analysis

The major driving factors for the growth in the GaN semiconductor devices market are the wide bandgap property of the GaN leading to its adoption in innovative applications and their increased usage in automotive and consumer electronics. In addition, its increased usage in the RF power applications has created positive impact on the market growth. However, its usage in applications such as CATV and others having frequency below 3.5GHz is not cost effective which may hinder their market growth. However, the increasing demand and usage of these devices in aerospace, medical, military and others is expected to drive the market further.
