Market Dynamics
Driver: Rising demand for 5G in mobile communications
5G services began in 2019, with 6G projected in 2030. 5G is a significant step from 4G, boasting ten times the reaction and data transmission speeds. Furthermore, its speed, low latency, and reliability will open numerous applications. Power amplifiers, switches, adjustable capacitors, and filters are commonly found in radiofrequency (RF) front-end modules (FEM) found in smartphones and tablets. Mobile devices use RF silicon-on-insulator (RF-SOI) to adjust and hold cellular signals, giving them clear connections from a wider range of locations. SOI wafers continue to be popular in the mobile market because they provide low insertion loss, minimal harmonics, and strong linearity over a wide frequency range at a reasonable cost. Emerging technologies such as FD-SOI/RF-SOI can help systems deliver high speed/bandwidth at low power. Thus, the rising demand for 5G in mobile communications is expected to accelerate market growth.
Restraint: Certain disadvantages of Silicon on Insulator wafers hampers the growth
There are several disadvantages associated with Silicon on Insulator wafers—reduced breakdown voltage, floating body, and self-heating effects in SOI wafer-based devices. Reduced breakdown voltage levels severely limit the maximum supply voltage at which SOI wafer-based circuits and devices can operate. When the parasitic device turns on, the SOI wafer-based transistor cannot be switched off by changing the gate bias.
In Silicon on Insulator wafer-based devices, the body terminal is either tied to the gate or left free for floating, called a floating body. The floating body is supposed to reduce power consumption and improve device efficiency. However, the floating body effect acts as a major parasitic effect in SOI-MOSFETs and is a consequence of the complete isolation of the transistor from the substrate. The effect is related to the build-up of a positive charge in the silicon body of the transistor, originating from the holes created by impact ionization. This charge cannot be removed rapidly enough, primarily because no contact with the Si film (body) is available.
Opportunity: Surging adoption of FD-SOI in IoT devices and ML applications
The increasing use of FD-SOI in digital electronics creates opportunities for new IoT devices and applications as this technology ensures ultra-low power consumption, ultra-low current leakage, small and dense packaging, and the cost-efficiency of IoT devices. FD-SOI wafer-based devices have reverse bias characteristics, which help them operate at low voltages without area or cost penalties. Hence, FD-SOI is the most effective technique used in IoT devices. The increasing deployment of FD-SOI-based IoT solutions in automotive and network infrastructure applications is expected to provide opportunities for the growth of the SOI market. FD-SOI is also gaining ground in machine learning. ML techniques can significantly speed up the design space exploration for power devices, eventually reducing product-to-market time. Moreover, the breakdown voltage prediction using machine learning models in SOI wafer-based devices can dramatically shorten the inference time.
Challenge Process control in Silicon on Insulator wafers and circuit design complexity
The complex semiconductor manufacturing process poses hurdles in establishing the processes required for next-generation SOI technology, reducing the process’s systematic errors. Another issue with SOI has been circuit design, which necessitates new techniques from a technical standpoint. The SOI circuit designer must better understand the underlying device physics and processes; not doing so will present challenges during fabrication due to manufacturing and metrology problems.
By wafer type, Silicon on Insulator Market for FD-SOI to grow with the highest CAGR in the forecast period
The FD-SOI wafers segment is anticipated to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Market growth is driven by their advantages—high flexibility, easy implementation, low cost, less complexity, reduced leakage currents, and their ability to optimize power/performance tradeoffs. Several FD-SOI wafer manufacturers are focusing on product launches and collaborations with other players in the silicon on insulator industry to strengthen their product portfolio and cater to the increasing demand for FD-SOI wafers. For instance, in August 2022, Google is expanding its open-source chip development effort with Skywater Technology, a US foundry, to a 90 nm FD-SOI technology.
Silicon on Insulator Market for MEMS devices is expected to record the highest CAGR in the forecast period
The MEMS devices segment is expected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of the MEMS devices segment is attributed to the rising use of SOI wafers in MEMS devices for consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial applications. Additionally, the presence of many ecosystem players providing SOI wafer-based MEMS and their continuous development have bolstered market growth.
Silicon on Insulator Market for Consumer electronics accounted for the largest size of the SOI market in 2021

Hi, we need sections 1, 2, 4, and 7 for our Technology Management Program class on microchips.
I see a huge difference between your 2018 report and the one of April 2017 on the same subject (SOI); in particular the alternative technologies to smart cut like Eltran. Could you explain ?
Interested in understanding if you cover the market share of RF SOI foundries (e.g., what percent of an RF SOI foundry is used by company X vs Y vs Z)
Hi, I am wondering if you make discounts for start-ups as we are interested in your report.
Need help for our SOI technology development study. Requirement is for market size by SOI type, application and wafer size.
Please let me know more about this report. My focus is to understand the RFSOI TAM and who are the chip makers (RFMD/Skyworks/etc.) and their potential growth beyond 2019.
