MBE SYSTEMS MARKET OVERVIEW

The global MBE systems market size was valued at approximately USD 0.1 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 0.16 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast period.

Layer-by-layer (epitaxial) thin film deposition is referred to as an ultra-high vacuum approach using the Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) equipment. The method is only applied to the creation of extremely pure III-V semiconductors, where sub-monolayer accuracy can be achieved when measuring layer thickness. Six solid source effusion cells and two RF plasma gas sources make up the system. It is a crucial instrument for the advancement of nanotechnologies and is only employed in the production of semiconductor devices like transistors. It is also a useful technology for creating modern optoelectronic and electronic devices, and resonant-cavity photodetectors require MBE growth of semiconductor layers.

COVID-19 Impact: Supply and Lockdown Limitations to Impede Market Advancement

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with MBE systems experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Shutdown of electronic industry globally to hamper market growth. Lockdown restrictions and closure of end-user industries affected market expansion. Fluctuation of raw material prices due to border closure hinder MBE systems market growth. An outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic disrupted business growth and declined product demand among consumers. 

LATEST TRENDS 

Incorporation in Various Applications to Stimulate Market Development

Applications for MBE systems are rapidly expanding globally. The atomic layer by atomic layer crystal growth method known as "Molecule Beam Epitaxy" (MBE) is carried out in an ultra-high vacuum (UHV) environment and is based on the reaction of molecular or atomic beams with a heated crystalline substrate. The method is only applied to the creation of extremely pure III-V semiconductors, where sub-monolayer accuracy can be achieved when measuring layer thickness. Six solid source effusion cells and two RF plasma gas sources make up the system. These factors are anticipated to drive the MBE systems market growth in the coming years.
