Report Overview

全球市场如果扫描电子显微镜ze was valued at USD 3.4 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.52% from 2021 to 2028. Key drivers of the market include increasing demand for nanotechnology-based research and consequent rise in funding. Furthermore, growing product application in the semiconductor, electronics, and pharmaceutical industries is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. In addition, improvements in the resolution power and features like attachment of other devices, such as energy x-ray dispersion spectrometer, are expected to propel market growth over the forecast period.

扫描电子的成功的一个关键原因Microscopes (SEMs) is that they are widely used by small- to medium-scale R&D institutes and pharmaceutical companies. They provide researchers and quality assurance personnel with data regarding surface morphology and properties, such as topography, chemical analysis, fractography, etc. For example, the Zeiss Gemini 500 is a high-resolution Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM) that delivers nanoscale imaging from 100 mm diameter wafers down to small pieces. It has excellent resolution and image quality at high and low accelerating voltages.

As nanotechnology has applications in most of the areas of semiconductors, material sciences, and life sciences, which substantially affect the economy of any nation, it promotes government organizations and other corporate enterprises to support the R&D via public funding. The global market is observing higher growth owing to various driving factors, such as it is one of the most vital devices to analyze nanomaterials at the atomic scale in many pharmaceutical industries, medical devices, and numerous industry verticals.

Semiconductor device manufacturing requiresmicroscopesfor procedures, such as lithography, coating, failure analysis, and detection. Growth of the semiconductor industry at a rapid pace in nations, such as India and China, owing to the outsourcing of electric equipment manufacturing is a major driver of the SEMs market.

Increasing global focus on R&D for applications, such asneurosciences, material sciences, life sciences, nanotechnology, and semiconductor industry, would increase the adoption rate for advanced and automated microscopes, such as scanning probe microscope, analytical electron microscope, and SEMs. These microscopes provide imaging resolution as high as 0.1 nm, which is necessarily required for these precision manufacturing industries.

COVID19 scanning electron microscope market impact: 0.3% decline from 2019 to 2020

Pandemic Impact	Post COVID Outlook
Restrictions on movement enforced in most regions have impeded growth in several global markets. The pandemic has increased pressure on healthcare providers as well.	The WHO stated that millions of people have been infected by the coronavirus. This has stimulated the demand for a vaccine to control the infection rate. Thus, this outbreak is also influencing the need for SEMs over the forecast period, for better R&D success.
Companies faced reduced revenues, such as Olympus Corporation's revenue decreased by 21.7% in the first quarter of 2020 due to a decrease in revenue in all businesses as a result of restriction on sales promotion activities and delay in distribution	Post-COVID, the scanning electron microscope market is expected to grow at a lucrative pace due to the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

These applications are sub-segments of the semiconductor industry, which are recently gaining enormous demand in the market. According to Moore’s law, the semiconductor industry is constantly moving towards the miniaturization of transistor chips. These trends of miniaturization of transistor chips requiring advanced microscopes, such as TEM, SEM, and SPM, for analytical and quality assurance purposes will provide great market potential over the next seven years.

Scanning Electron Microscopes Market Trends

The rise in advancement of nanotechnology is majorly driving the expansion of the scanning electron microscope market. The growing demand for compact, and more efficient devices with lower prices, along with the growing desire for product miniaturization among the consumers has accelerated the development of nanotechnology in a wide range of industries. In addition, the use of electron microscopes allows the development of three-dimensional images in a variety of industries. Manufacturers can choose optimal manufacturing materials based on precise images, ensuring product stability and durability. These factors are expected to fuel the market growth in the forecast period.

扫描电子技术的进步microscopes allows the generation of data in digital form, which speeds up the instrument's operation. Furthermore, it reduces the number of required steps in sample preparation. These factors are anticipated to contribute to the market's overall growth in the forecast period.

However, the market is restricted by high excise taxes and custom duty on medical goods along with the high cost of modern digital electronic microscopes. Furthermore, a scarcity of highly skilled labor resources capable of handling SMEs effectively constitutes a challenge to the market's expansion.

There is a huge potential for scanning electron microscopes in the healthcare domain. The integration of additional devices such as energy x-ray dispersion spectrometer with electron microscopes is expected to increase the resolution power and other features. This is expected to further propel the market growth.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in severe impact over the commercial and economic activity across the globe. This is projected to have a favorable influence on the microscopic software industry for the healthcare, however, it is expected to have a negative impact on the microscopic software industry for the automobile, semiconductor and aerospace industries.
