| LED chip shipments in 2011 will significantly increase |
According to The Information Network's report "solid-state lighting revolution in the field: lower production costs based on observation and analysis of the market", LED market will be explosive growth. Chip shipments in 2011 than in 2010, an increase of 40% or more; by 2013, LED chip shipments will reach twice in 2010.
Market research company said, LED chips in the use of backlight, automobile lights and other applications at the same time stimulated the rapid growth of LED chip manufacturers are investing heavily in this area. LED industry hot for supporting the traditional semiconductor technology and testing equipment suppliers and metal organic chemical vapor deposition system (MOCVD) manufacturers provide favorable opportunities.
According to The Information Network predicts that shipments of high-brightness LED in 2011 than in 2010 on the basis of 100 billion increase to 135 billion or so. Also LED backlighting from 20 billion in 2010 to grow to 30 billion. Therefore, the total 2011 shipments of LED from 120 billion in 2010 to grow to 165 billion.
In 2010 the LED market, Japan Asia (Nichia) the company's market share was 15% (compared with 16% market share in 2009 decreased slightly), ranked first. Samsung ranked second (Samsung) the rapid increase in the company market share to 10.5% (6.5% compared with 2009 significantly increased), Career (Cree) to 6% of the company's market share came in fifth, tight followed by Philips with LumiLEDs (Philips Lumileds) 5.5% market share company (and compared to 2009, Cree and LumiLEDs market share of the two companies rank just reversed.)
In 2010, manufacturers sold a total of 786 units MOCVD epitaxial equipment, which Aixtron made in the field a little more than 55% market share. Veeco followed to obtain a 41% market share. In 2009, Aixtron achieved total sales that year of only 228 units, 70% of Veeco's market share in 2009 was 25%.
According to the company The Information Network report, the amount of China's rapid growth MOCVD equipment installation process has played an active role. From 2010 to 2012, China's stimulus package is expected to make USD 16.0 billion in investment to the MOCVD equipment purchases. In 2010, China purchased the MOCVD equipment MOCVD equipment accounted for 35% of total shipments.
Relative to the market research firm said a total of 250 billion dollars in the semiconductor industry, LED industry market of 100 million U.S. dollars. Most people believe that the 786 units sold in 2010 MOCVD market share of about 20 billion U.S. dollars (based on estimated selling price per MOCVD equipment, $ 2,500,000). MOCVD equipment at the cost spent on packaged accounts for 8% of the total cost of LED, the other front-end cost of equipment costs 3% of the total cost, cost of lithography equipment and the cost of measuring equipment accounted for 3%, about 5 billion U.S. dollars. The total cost of LED devices composed of part of the largest accounting for 65% of back-end processing, including removal of the substrate, chip cutting, packaging and so on.
Research company The Information Network that the LED market, highlighting the application of LED backlight should be part of the fastest growing. Backlight LED, the average annual compound growth rate (CAGR) of more than 40%, while the LCD TV from 2007 to 2012 the average annual compound growth rate of about 300.3%. |
