Gallium Nitride (GaN) Epiwafers Market Size 2023-2029

The global Gallium Nitride (GaN) Epiwafers market was valued at US$ 432.9 million in 2022 and is projected to reach US$ 1577.3 million by 2029, at a CAGR of 20.3% during the forecast period. The influence of COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine War were considered while estimating market sizes.

Gallium Nitride (GaN) Epiwafers are essentially thin layers of gallium nitride that are grown or deposited on a substrate, typically a crystalline material like silicon carbide (SiC) or sapphire. These epiwafers play a crucial role as a foundation in the production of electronic devices utilizing gallium nitride technology.

Gallium nitride is a semiconductor material with a wide bandgap and is well-known for its exceptional electrical and optical properties. Through the growth of a thin layer of gallium nitride on a suitable substrate, engineers and researchers are able to manufacture high-performance electronic devices, including power amplifiers, high-frequency transistors, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), laser diodes, and various other optoelectronic components.

The use of GaN epiwafers enables the optimization of device performance, reliability, and efficiency across a wide range of applications, such as power electronics, telecommunications, solid-state lighting, and wireless communication systems.
