Development of New Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) Technologies to Widen Scope of Applications

Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is a chemical process used for the production of solid materials with high purity and high performance. It involves deposition of a thin solid powder, fiber, monolithic component, and coating over plastic or metal surfaces. CVD materials are used for several applications such as data storage, cutting tools, solar products, microelectronic components, and medical equipment. Increasing applications across different end-user industries will fuel the adoption of the chemical vapor deposition technology.

CVD Equipment to Command Substantial Revenue Share through 2025

CVD can be categorized into equipment, services, and materials. CVD equipment was the leading segment in terms of revenue in 2016. This equipment plays a vital role in the manufacturing of high-performance thin solid coatings. Spiraling demand for these coatings for optical, chemical, and mechanical operations in various industrial manufacturing verticals is contributing to the growth of the segment. The high quality of deposition films obtained through the equipment will keep its demand strong through 2025.

CVD services can be the fastest growing segment between 2017 and 2025. These services refer to incorporation of technologies such as hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD), combustion (CCVD), and plasma enhanced (PECVD). Rapid technological advancements are likely to supplement the growth of the segment. Besides this, extensive R&D is paving way for novel and innovative technologies, which in turn can support segment growth. For instance, recently, researchers from Japan developed a novel CVD method to produce graphene at temperatures as low as 50oC using a molten gallium catalyst and a dilute methane vapor source.
