Market Share of Semiconductor Lithography Equipment Industry
The market is concentrated due to a few vendors such as ASML, Veeco, and Nikon occupying the majority market share. The key equipment for semiconductor manufacturing is basically monopolized by American and Japanese companies. With growing consolidation and technological advancement, and geopolitical scenarios, the studied market is witnessing fluctuation. In addition, with increasing vertical integration, the intensity of competition in the studied market is expected to continue to rise, considering their ability to invest, which results from their revenues.
- September 2022 - Canon Inc. launched the "Lithography Plus1" solution platform for semiconductor lithography systems. Canon's more than 50 years of experience in semiconductor lithography system support and the company's vast wealth of data are incorporated into the system to maximize support efficiency and propose and implement optimized system processes.
- June 2022 - Samsung and ASML have agreed to collaborate on developing High-NA (high numerical aperture) EUV Lithography equipment, which will be available next year. Compared to older EUV Lithography equipment, the next-generation High-NA EUV Lithography equipment can engrave finer circuits.
