The rapid growth of the electronics and semiconductor sector is expected to drive the ALD equipment market going forward. The electronics industry refers to businesses that create, design, manufacture, and sell equipment such as radios, televisions, stereos, computers, semiconductors, transistors, integrated circuits, and more. ALD equipment is used in the electronics and semiconductor industry to produce substrates for microelectronics and nanotechnology. Additionally, ALD technologies enable the fabrication of protective and functional coatings used in fuel cells and other applications requiring corrosion or wear resistance. For example, according to ROI Revolution, a US-based digital marketing agency, consumer electronics online revenue is projected to exceed $88.3 billion by 2025. Therefore, the growing sales of electronics and semiconductors will drive the ALD equipment market.
Major companies in the ALD (Atomic Layer Deposition) equipment market are concentrating on innovative developments, particularly in energy efficiency, which leads to reduced energy consumption and improved precursor utilization. Energy efficiency involves using less energy to achieve the same task or outcome. For example, in August 2024, Kalpana Systems, a Netherlands-based company specializing in advanced technology solutions, introduced roll-to-roll spatial atomic layer deposition (sALD) tools, representing a significant leap in thin film deposition technology. This new roll-to-roll sALD tool is designed for industries such as solar PV, OLEDs, batteries, and packaging. The technology allows for high-speed deposition of thin layers with atomic precision, improving stability and durability. It is energy-efficient and can be integrated with other deposition methods for large-scale applications, thereby supporting rapid, flexible manufacturing processes across various sectors.
In May 2023, Beneq, a Finland-based manufacturer of atomic layer deposition (ALD) equipment, partnered with Lung Pien Vacuum Industry Co. Ltd. to jointly develop ALD product solutions for optical coating manufacturing. Through this partnership, the companies aim to speed up the adoption of ALD coating technology for premium optical applications, including camera lenses and automotive optics. Lung Pien Vacuum Industry Co. Ltd. is a Taiwan-based company specializing in optical vacuum coating systems.

ALD (Atomic Layer Deposition) equipment is an innovative deposition technology that enables the precise deposition of ultra-thin layers, reaching thicknesses as fine as a few nanometers. ALD is utilized for applying protective and functional coatings, particularly in applications that demand corrosion or wear resistance, such as fuel cells. The technology is based on a surface-controlled thin film deposition process.
The main deposition methods of ALD equipment include plasma-enhanced ALD, thermal ALD, spatial ALD, roll-to-roll ALD, powder ALD, and others. Plasma-enhanced ALD is particularly used for synthesizing ultra-thin films with Å (angstrom)-level resolution. This technique enables atomic-scale control of thin films made from various materials. The films deposited by ALD equipment include oxide films, metal films, sulfide films, nitride films, and fluoride films. These films find applications in non-semiconductor sectors such as medical, energy, conventional optics, and coatings.
