Global Power Laser Annealing Equipment Market Strategic Research Report

Scope of the Report

The global Power Laser Annealing Equipment market size is predicted to grow from US$ 358 million in 2025 to US$ 779 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.7% from 2026 to 2032.

Power laser annealing equipment is mainly used for the manufacturing of power devices such as IGBT and SiC. For 4-inch, 6-inch, 8-inch, and 12-inch wafers, high-energy laser beams are used for automatic annealing process, which has the advantages of high instantaneous temperature, short action time, and low thermal budget. It can better meet the process requirements of plate processing and efficient activation.

Semiconductors are a key enabling technology for a wide range of products in nearly every sector of our economy. Following strong growth of 26.2% in 2021, the global semiconductor market will show single-digit growth in 2022, with a total size of US$580 billion and a growth rate of 4.4%. In 2022, all geographic regions except Asia Pacific will show double-digit growth. Sales in the Americas were US$142.1 billion, a year-on-year increase of 17.0%, sales in Europe were US$53.8 billion, a year-on-year increase of 12.6%, sales in Japan were US$48.1 billion, a year-on-year increase of 10.0%, while sales in the largest region, the Asia-Pacific region, were US$336.2 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 2.0%. According to the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS), the industry experienced major ups and downs in 2022. While chip sales reached their highest annual total ever in 2022, a slowdown in the second half of the year significantly limited growth. In 2022, global semiconductor sales will reach US$574 billion, of which US semiconductor companies' sales total US$275 billion, accounting for 48% of the global market. In order to maintain industry competitiveness, U.S. semiconductor companies’ investment in R&D has also reached a record high of US$58.8 billion. Historically, the PC/computer and communications end markets have accounted for approximately two-thirds of total sales, with industries such as automotive, industrial and consumer electronics accounting for the remainder. But according to WSTS's 2022 Semiconductor End-Use Survey, sales in end markets in 2022 show clear changes. Although the PC/computer and communication terminal market will still account for the largest share of semiconductor sales in 2022, its lead has narrowed. Meanwhile, automotive and industrial applications experienced the largest growth this year.

As the research and development of third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor material SiC becomes more mature, the demand for SiC devices will gradually increase. Laser annealing technology is suitable for thin-film high-voltage IGBTs and SiC products and will remain one of the mainstream technologies in the future.
