The “Photomask Market to 2025 by Type (Reticle, Working Mask, Master Mask and Copy Mask), Application (Semiconductor & IC, Discrete, Optoelectronics, Display Devices, MEMS and Others) and End-User Verticals (Semiconductor and IC and Flat Panel Display – Global Analysis and Forecast” – Global Analysis and Forecast” The scope of study involves understanding on the factors responsible for this growth of photomask market along with the estimates and forecasts of the revenue and market share analysis and also spots the significant photmask players in the market and their key developments.

Photomask Market to 2025 - Global Analysis and Forecasts by Application, Deployment Type, Application and End-Use Verticals market is expected to grow US$ 4,949.1 million by 2025 from US$ 3,320 million in 2015. Photomask are glass or Quartz substrates of high quality which contains the precise patterns or design of an integrated circuit (IC). With the advancement in technology which is leading to miniaturization of semiconductor devices, the complexity of circuit diagram is also set to increase, this in turn will give rise to newer set of photomasks as a new chip or new displays require a new set of photomasks.

Intrinsic physical characteristics of a photomask make it an ideal tool in the manufacturing of display devices. Display devices have become an integral part of human beings today. The number of display devices is more than the number of human beings present on the planet. In the healthcare sector, display devices are very critical instruments for the users to diagnose any presence of unwanted particle. LCD and OLED form the display devices which have a plethora of applications apart from healthcare sector. The PCB circuits of these devices are critical and require high amount of care. The dimensions and various width are imprinted ion the metal films of photomasks and then using various lithography processes carved out on the PCBs. With rising applications of display devices in day-to-day activities, photomasks for these display devices are expected to shoot up in the coming years.

The global photomask market by geography is segmented into six region including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa and South America. Asia Pacific is expected to account for the largest share of the global photomask market in 2016, followed by North America. Taiwan and Japan being two key countries in Asia Pacific region which will lead photomask market in this region and is also expected to continue its dominance throughout the forecast period from 2016 to 2025. The report profiles key players such as Advance Reproduction Corporation, Compugraphics International Ltd, Nippon Filcon Co., ltd, Photoronics, Inc., and Taiwan Mask Corp. among others.
