Global Lithography Equipment Market Research Report 2020
Summary
Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to almost 100 countries around the globe with the World Health Organization declaring it a public health emergency. The global impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are already starting to be felt and will significantly affect the Lithography Equipment market in 2020.
COVID-19 can affect the global economy in three main ways: by directly affecting production and demand, by creating supply chain and market disruption, and by its financial impact on firms and financial markets.
The outbreak of COVID-19 has brought effects on many aspects, like flight cancellations; travel bans and quarantines; restaurants closed; all indoor events restricted; over forty countries state of emergency declared; massive slowing of the supply chain; stock market volatility; falling business confidence, growing panic among the population, and uncertainty about future.
This report also analyses the impact of Coronavirus COVID-19 on the Lithography Equipment industry.
The lithography equipment is the core equipment of the lithography process, with large value content and high technical requirements. As the core equipment of the lithography process, the lithography equipment is also the equipment with the highest technical content in all semiconductor manufacturing equipment, involving many advanced technologies such as precision optics, precision motion, and high-precision environmental control.
The working principle of the lithography equipment: In the IC manufacturing process, the light beam passes through the mask and the lens, compensates the optical error through the objective lens, and exposes the circuit diagram on the silicon wafer with the light-sensitive coating, and then develops it on the silicon wafer.
Based on our recent survey, we have several different scenarios about the Lithography Equipment YoY growth rate for 2020. The probable scenario is expected to grow by a -6.7% in 2020 and the revenue will be US$ 12.7 billion in 2020 from US$ 13.6 billion in 2019. The market size of Lithography Equipment will reach US$ xx in 2026, with a CAGR of xx% from 2020 to 2026.

With the improvement of the light source and the continuous innovation of the process, the lithography equipment has experienced the development of five generations of products, and each generation has achieved major breakthroughs in the light source, wavelength, equipment, and minimum process nodes.
The light sources used in the first to fourth generation lithography equipment belong to deep ultraviolet light, and the fifth generation EUV lithography equipment uses extreme ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 13.5nm. From the first generation to the fourth generation of lithography equipment, the wavelength is continuously shortened, the process nodes are continuously improved, and the lithography equipment technology gradually moves from backward to mature.
The first generation has been eliminated by the market due to backward technology, and the rest are still being sold. The fifth generation is currently the most advanced technical equipment with a process node of up to 5nm.

Light Source Wavelength Equipment Type Minimal Process
First Generation g-line 436nm Proximity、Contact Type 800-250nm
Second Generation i-line 365nm Proximity、Contact Type 800-250nm
Third Generation KrF 248nm Scanning Projection Type 180-130nm
Fourth Generation ArF 193nm Step Projection、Immersion Step Type 130-65nm、45-22nm
Fifth Generation EUV 13.5nm Extreme Ultraviolet Type 22-7nm

According to the sales calculation in the lithography equipment market in 2018, ArF lithography equipment is still the mainstream demand model in the market, ArF immersion accounts for 56%. EUV ranks second, accounting for 21%. ue to the continuous improvement of technical requirements in the future, it is expected that the market share of EUV will continue to increase in the future. Since i-Line belongs to the second generation of lithography equipment, its technology is relatively backward, with a market share of 4.4%.

ASML is the dominant player in the top lithography market. Among the cumulative shipments of top lithography equipment from 2011 to 2017, EUV is completely monopolized by ASML, with 100% of the sources of shipments, and more than 80% of ArFi lithography equipment are also provided by ASML. Nikon and Canon's advanced processes are far behind ASML, the main market is in the low-end, the biggest advantage is only cost.
In 2017, less than 300 lithography equipment for wafer manufacturing were shipped globally, of which 198 were shipped by ASML, accounting for nearly 70% of the global market. Among them, there are 11 EUV lithography equipment, 76 ArFi lithography equipment, 14 ArF lithography equipment, 71 KrF lithography equipment, and 26 i-line lithography equipment.

The global leader is ASML in the Netherlands, and others include Nikon in Japan and Canon in Japan. The domestic enterprises engaged in manufacturing integrated circuit lithography equipment are mainly SMEE.
ASML lithography equipment has a wide range, covering from low-end to ultra-high-end products. Canon is mainly concentrated in the panel field, and there is not much participation in the high-end market. SMEE, one of the few lithography equipment manufacturers in China, is a major supplier of LED lithography equipment and is active in the low-end equipment market.
