Semiconductor Market Expected to Reach $1033.5 Billion by 2031—Allied Market Research

A semiconductor is a material product usually comprised of silicon, which conducts electricity more than an insulator, such as glass, but less than a pure conductor, such as copper or aluminum. Their conductivity and other properties can be altered with the introduction of impurities, called doping, to meet the specific needs of the electronic component in which it resides. Also known as semis, or chips, semiconductors can be found in thousands of products such as computers, smartphones, appliances, gaming hardware, and other electronic equipment.

Over the past three decades, the semiconductor industry has experienced rapid growth and delivered enormous economic impact. Chip performance and cost improvements made possible the evolution from mainframes to PCs in the 1990s, the web and online services in the 2000s, and the smartphone revolution in the 2010s. The technological innovations have created incredible economic benefits. Semiconductors have become essential to the modern world, which is why long-term market demand for semiconductors remains strong.

According to semiconductor market analysis, the logic devices segment was the highest contributor to the market in 2021. The 7/5nm and 5nm segments collectively accounted for around 41.8% semiconductor market share in 2021. The outbreak of the COVID-19 has significantly impacted the growth of the semiconductor industry.

The semiconductor industry is being held back by the constantly changing functionality of semiconductor chips and the unique demands of end-users from various industries. The factors such as Power efficiency, unrealistic schedules, and cost-down considerations are hindering the semiconductor market growth.
