Research and Markets: Global Chemical Vapor Deposition Market 2014-2018, with Adeka Applied Materials, ASM International N.V. & Kurt J. Lesker Dominating

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7spsvp/global_chemical) has announced the addition of the "Global Chemical Vapor Deposition Market 2014-2018" report to their offering.

The Global Chemical Vapor Deposition market to grow at a CAGR of 11% to 2018.

Increasing demand for CVD among semiconductor manufacturers is one of the major drivers in the market, as CVD equipment and materials are used widely in the manufacturing of semiconductors.

Plasma-enhanced CVD is carried out in a vacuum system to generate plasma. The process is the only CVD technique to ensure deposition of a thin film coating at a low temperature. For instance, deposition of Si3N4 on integrated circuits needs to be carried out at a low temperature through plasma-enhanced CVD. Thus, there has been an increased use of plasma-enhanced CVD in the market in 2013, although it is a more expensive technique than thermally activated CVD. This trend is expected to contribute significantly to the growth of the Global Chemical Vapor Deposition market during the forecast period.

Further, the report states that one of the major challenges is the high total cost of ownership. The use of sophisticated reactor and vacuum systems in CVD increases the cost of fabrication. Also, the CVD system requires skilled operators with effective training, and continuous maintenance and monitoring, to detect and rectify any failure in CVD equipment.
