Semiconductor Coolers, also known as Thermoelectric Coolers (TEC), are solid-state refrigeration devices based on the Peltier effect. When direct current passes through a circuit composed of two different semiconductor materials, heat absorption or release occurs at the joint, thereby achieving the effect of cooling or heating. This phenomenon is the Peltier effect.
In terms of performance characteristics, semiconductor coolers have the advantage of no mechanical moving parts, which makes it extremely quiet and almost noiseless during operation. It also reduces the probability of wear and failure, greatly improves reliability and service life, and generally has a service life of tens of thousands of hours. Moreover, it has a fast cooling speed and can reach the set temperature in a short time, and the response time is usually within a few minutes. In terms of precise temperature control, it performs well, and the temperature control accuracy can reach ±0.1℃, which can meet application scenarios with extremely high temperature requirements. However, the cooling efficiency of semiconductor coolers is lower than that of traditional cooling methods, and its cooling capacity is generally between tens of watts and hundreds of watts.
Semiconductor coolers are widely used in many fields. In the field of electronic equipment, it is used to dissipate heat for high-power chips, laser diodes and other heat-generating components to ensure stable operation of the equipment. For example, in the CPU cooling system of some high-end computers, semiconductor coolers are used to assist in heat dissipation to improve the performance of the computer. In medical equipment, it can be used to cool optical components in analytical instruments to ensure the accuracy of test results; it can also be used in small refrigerators to store medicines and biological samples. In the aerospace field, due to its characteristics of no moving parts and high reliability, it is used for temperature control of electronic equipment in satellites and spacecraft to adapt to the extreme environment of space.
According to PACO Research data, with the development trend of miniaturization and high performance of electronic equipment, and the increasing demand for temperature control equipment in the medical, aerospace and other fields, the semiconductor cooler market has shown a good growth trend. In 2024, the global semiconductor cooler market size is about US$800 million. It is expected that by 2030, the market size will grow at a compound annual growth rate of about 6%, and is expected to exceed US$1.2 billion. Among them, the Asia-Pacific region will become the main driving force for market growth due to the booming electronics manufacturing industry, and its share of the global market is expected to increase from 40% in 2024 to about 45% in 2030.
Looking to the future, the development prospects of semiconductor coolers are very broad. On the one hand, researchers will continue to develop new semiconductor materials to improve refrigeration efficiency and reduce energy consumption. For example, exploring new semiconductor materials based on nanotechnology is expected to greatly improve the performance of semiconductor coolers. On the other hand, with the development of emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence, semiconductor coolers will develop in the direction of intelligence and integration, and can achieve seamless connection and intelligent control with other devices, further expanding their application areas and market space.
