According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Wafer Resistivity Measurement Equipment market size was valued at US$ 88.8 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 131 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.1% during review period.
Wafer resistivity measurement equipment is used in semiconductor manufacturing to determine the electrical resistivity of silicon wafers. Resistivity is a crucial parameter that indicates the ability of the wafer to conduct electricity and is directly related to the doping concentration. These systems typically use four-point probe (4PP) or eddy current methods to measure the resistance of the wafer. By knowing the wafer thickness, the resistivity can be calculated. Accurate resistivity measurements are essential for controlling the electrical properties of semiconductor devices.
The industry trend for wafer resistivity measurement equipment is driven by the increasing demands for tighter process control, smaller device geometries, and new materials in semiconductor manufacturing. Key trends include:
Higher Accuracy and Resolution: As device dimensions shrink, the need for more precise and accurate resistivity measurements becomes critical. This drives the development of more advanced measurement techniques and improved instrumentation.
Non-Contact Measurement Techniques: There's a growing interest in non-contact measurement techniques, such as eddy current and microwave-based methods, to avoid potential damage or contamination to the wafer surface.
3D Resistivity Mapping: With the advent of 3D integrated circuits, there's a need for 3D resistivity mapping capabilities to characterize the electrical properties of different layers within the device.
Integration with Process Control Systems: Wafer resistivity measurement equipment is increasingly being integrated with process control systems to provide real-time feedback and enable closed-loop process control. This allows for faster detection and correction of process variations.
Measurement of New Materials: The semiconductor industry is exploring new materials beyond silicon, such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), which require specialized resistivity measurement equipment due to their different electrical properties.
Increased Automation and Throughput: To meet the demands of high-volume manufacturing, there's a need for automated measurement systems with higher throughput and faster measurement speeds. This includes robotic handling and automated data analysis.
