High Electron Mobility Transistor Market
Growing Demand of Consumer Electronics and the Applicability of High Electron Mobility Transistor Tends to Drive the Market Growth

The Global High electron mobility transistor market is forecast to reach $2.8 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 15.2% from 2021 to 2026. The market growth is attributed to the factors such as rapid industrialisation, technological developments, and growing demand from consumer electronics, automobiles industries and others. One of the first selections for these components is the GaN HEMTs. Active electronic sensor arrays are constructed from GaN-based HEMTs, used for airborne radars, ground-based air defense radars, and naval radar. In a standard DBS receiver, discrete HEMTs are almost often used as the preamplifier, accompanied by one or more GaAs MESFET monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs) including heterostructure FET (Field Effect Transistors) and modulation-doped FET due to their excellent low-noise characteristics.

High Electron Mobility Transistor Market Segment Analysis – By Type

High electron mobility transistor market is segmented into GaN, GaN/SiC, GaAs and others. The GaN type segment held the highest market share in 2020 at 45.2%. Moreover, it is anticipated to witness  significant market growth during the forecast period 2020-2025. The most exhilarating HEMT devices are material based on Gallium Nitride (GaN), which provides high quality, high power density and outstanding wideband output compared to current technologies such as Silicon (SI) or Gallium Arsenide (GaAs). Owing to its outstanding electron transport and electrical properties, GaN is also desirable for a large range of electronics applications. Due to the excellent performance in high power and millimeter wave frequency applications, the AlGaN / GaN HEMTs have gained a major part of the focus among numerous GaN-based electronic devices. GaN has been a very promising substrate for high-temperature, high-power and high-frequency transistors because of the electronic properties such as strong critical breakdown area, high density electron velocity, reasonable thermal conductivity and low cost. This is also chemically very unreactive (very hard to chisel), as the N-face content is chemically more active than the Ga-face material.

High Electron Mobility Transistor Market Segment Analysis – By Application Type

Radar components and space type segment held the highest market share of high electron mobility transistor in 2020. Moreover, it is anticipated to witness significant market growth at 13.9% CAGR during the forecast period 2021-2026. The main features for making radar components are high gain and low noise amplifiers. Using the low-noise HEMT preamplifier has resulted in major device efficiency enhancements at small incremental expense. A low-noise down-converter consisting of 0.25 ppm HEMT and three GaAs MMIC chips displayed a device noise value of less than 1.3 dB with a gain of around 62 dB from 11.7 GHz to 12.2 GHz, which is remarkable for a commercial machine. Microwave technology used for space applications is very costly, because it needs special protection from extreme space conditions to live. In addition, satellites must be deployed, meaning that machinery be sustained at high vibration and shocks without injury. To withstand these environments, HEMTs may be manufactured and have been widely used in different fields.
