The RF semiconductor devices to register second-highest CAGR during the forecast period

The market for GaN RF semiconductors is expected to exhibit the second-highest CAGR during the forecast period. Initially developed for improvised explosive device (IED) jammers in Iraq, GaN has emerged as the technology of choice for all new microwave and millimeter-wave electronics including radar, satellite, communications, and electronic warfare. The growing need for high power in the very high frequency (VHF), ultrahigh-frequency (UHF), and microwave bands has led to the demand for devices that can supply tens to hundreds of watts at RF frequencies up to 10 GHz and beyond. This demand is expected to drive the future market growth of GaN.

The 6-inch and above GaN wafer segment to register highest CAGR during the forecast period

The 6-inch and above GaN wafer segment of the GaN semiconductor device market, by wafer size, is projected to register the higher CAGR during the forecast period. Wafers in this size range offer manufacturers the ability to increase productivity and produce a large number of devices in a single batch. This, in turn, helps to bring down the overall cost of manufacturing 6-inch wafers making them one of the most cost-effective GaN wafers available in the market. This has become one of the main reasons owing to which the companies have been developing their semiconductor devices based on GaN wafers of 6-inches and above in recent years.
