Currently, most of these devices are based on display technologies such as organic light-emitting diode (OLED) and LED-backlit LCD. The display market has been witnessing several developments in terms of picture quality, display sizes, and power consumption features. The LED lighting market has also exhibited huge growth in the past with the introduction of attractive and low-power-consuming products.
Micro-LED technology is being developed to create display panels that offer high brightness and low power consumption. The micro-LED market can be divided broadly into the micro-LED display and micro-LED lighting. Micro-LED display panels are expected to hold a larger market share than micro-LED lighting panels.
Micro-LED Market Dynamics
Driver: Increase in demand for microdisplays for NTE devices
Increasing demand for brighter and more power-efficient display panels for smartwatches, smartphones, televisions, and AR/VR devices is expected to significantly drive the development and subsequent commercialization of micro-LED display technology. The keen interest of technology heavyweights such as Apple, Samsung, and Sony is expected to result in the faster commercialization of micro-LED display technology. Samsung and Sony are focused on the large panel segment for signage and television applications, while Apple is likely to commercialize the technology for the smartwatch application by 2021. Significant ongoing research by input suppliers for the establishment of a strong supply chain will also drive the growth of the micro-LED display market.
Restraint: Lack of supply chain and patents
At present, the lack of an established supply chain and distributed patent portfolio are the major restraints for the growth of the market. The fast adoption of OLED technology in display devices may further hinder the commercialization and growth of micro-LED technology.
Opportunity: Manufacturing of micro-LEDs on large silicon wafers
Manufacturing micro-LEDs on wafers has been a major challenge in terms of yield and cost. Most of the LED manufacturers today use sapphire wafers for manufacturing LEDs. These wafers are small in diameter and costly, which restrains the cost reduction of LED devices. ALLOS Semiconductors, Plessey Semiconductors, Aledia, and a few other players have developed GaN-on-silicon technology for manufacturing LEDs using conventional process. These companies are collaborating with the world’s leading LED foundries to increase the manufacturing capacity on a large scale.
This development is expected to increase the use of large-sized wafers (more than 4 inches) for manufacturing LED products. The technology is used for making high-quality GaN-on-Si epitaxial wafers by means of MOCVD/MOVPE. However, the technology is yet to be optimized for micro-LEDs. GaN-on-Si is a promising technology for the LED market, and once developed, it can significantly impact micro-LED technology in terms of manufacturing cost.
Challenge: Huge investment requirement in infrastructure, equipment, and process development; and need for different manufacturing processes as well as equipment compatibility
Manufacturers will have to adopt different manufacturing process and equipment or upgrade their existing systems to mass-produce micro-LED chips for different applications. Industry-leading LED manufacturers, such as Epistar (Taiwan) and Cree (US), are focusing on finding micro-LED development solutions that are compatible with the existing manufacturing processes. GLO AB (Sweden) demonstrated nanowires that can be grown on various substrates, such as sapphire and silicon, utilizing standard industry process equipment. Making the micro-LED fabrication process compatible with the existing fabrication plants is the major focus of industry-leading players.
Micro-LED technology-based displays are self-emitting, with no need for filters and liquid crystals, and industry-leading companies are finding ways to mass-produce RGB-based micro-LEDs. Down-converting micro-LEDs for display applications involves the manufacturing of very small pixel. To get down to very small pixel sizes, nanophosphors would probably not work, and even quantum dots will create some challenges due to some thermo-constraints, which make them impractical for very small pixels. Manufacturing small pixels based on micro-LED technology is comparatively easier than quantum dot or any other display technology.
Micro-LED display for smartphone application is expected to commercialize by 2021
The smartphone and tablet application are expected to account for the largest share of the micro-LED display market by 2026. The market for this application is expected to commercialize in 2021. Smartphones and tablets are high-volume applications, and once micro-LED display technology is commercialized, the corresponding market share will rise to dominate the overall micro-LED display market.
Consumer electronics vertical is anticipated to capture largest share in micro-LED market
