The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.
Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) devices are microelectromechanical systems that utilize piezoelectric substrates to generate and manipulate high-frequency acoustic waves on their surfaces. These devices find widespread use in filtering, sensing, and signal processing applications. SAW filters are integral in wireless communication, while SAW sensors are highly sensitive for pressure, temperature, and chemical detection.
Despite their limited bandwidth and sensitivity to environmental factors, SAW devices are known for their compact size, rapid response, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. Ongoing research aims to expand their capabilities and explore new materials for substrate development. SAW devices are crucial components in modern electronics, employed for a range of functions in various industries, including telecommunications, sensors, and radar systems, thanks to their ability to efficiently harness and manipulate surface acoustic waves.
COVID-19 IMPACT : Increased Demand for Telecommunications to Boost Demand Significantly
COVID-19 had a life changing impact globally. The surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices market was significantly affected. The virus had various impacts on different markets. Lockdowns were imposed in several nations. This erratic pandemic caused disruptions on all sorts of businesses. Restrictions tightened during the pandemic due to increasing number of cases. Numerous Industries were affected. However, the market for surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices experienced an increased demand.
The economic uncertainty caused by the pandemic resulted in reduced spending on non-essential items and slowed down investment in some technology sectors. This affected the demand for SAW devices in non-essential applications. Research and development activities in the SAW field were affected, as laboratories were shut down or operated with limited capacity during the pandemic. This could potentially slow down innovation and the introduction of new SAW-based technologies.
The pandemic led to an increased reliance on telecommunications and data communication services as more people worked, learned, and socialized from home. This surge in demand for wireless devices and networks, including 5G technology, benefited the SAW device industry, as SAW filters are essential for filtering and processing signals in these systems. SAW sensors have found new applications in the healthcare sector during the pandemic. They are used for monitoring vital signs, detecting pathogens, and conducting rapid diagnostic tests. SAW-based biosensors have played a role in the development of diagnostic tools for COVID-19 and other infectious diseases. The market is anticipated to boost the surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices market growth following the pandemic.
