The increasing penetration of microelectronics across numerous sectors is essentially driving physical vapour deposition market development. Microelectronics is the creation of tiny electronic equipment with micrometre dimensions that finds usage in the automobile, defence, and healthcare industries. One of the most important applications for physical vapour deposition is microelectronics (PVD). As a result, the rise of the microelectronics industry is supporting the growth of the physical vapour deposition market. Physical vapour deposition's increasing use in the manufacturing of low-e glass for the construction and automotive sectors is expected to drive market expansion. Physical vapour deposition market expansion is likely to be hampered by high capital expenditure and a lack of product differentiation and innovation. Innovative and advanced product development technologies need large capital investments in research and development, and the high cost of investment is projected to stymie the growth of the physical vapour deposition technology market.
According to Coherent Market Insights, Global Physical Vapor Deposition Market was valued at US$ 18.9 Billion in 2021 in terms of revenue, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.59% during the forecast period (2022 to 2030).
