Description

This report is focused on technical ceramic materials market and supply-chain which includes SiC/ CVD SiC, AlN, Al2O3, Y2O3, and BN used in the production of components and assemblies for use in semiconductor process equipment. SiC is frequently used for both carriers (boats, gas injectors, and fabware) and components for OEMs where high temperature or specific thermal packages are required, while traditional Al2O3 and AlN ceramics are normally used for lower temperature / etch applications. The machines/tools manufacturers that use these components are referred to as OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers). This report targets ceramics used in the manufacture of semiconductors, only.
