ECOSYSTEM - Full Scale Industry

 

The semiconductor industry is an advanced and capital-intensive industry that is constantly growing as demand increases: semiconductors are integrated into almost every elctronic device as part of the Internet-of-Things (IoT) trend, and chips are expected to perform more complex operations. By metrology, the science of measuring and characterizing tiny structures and materials, manufacturers verify the integrity of the chips and improve production efficiency.

Israel became a key player in the global market of metrology and testing of semiconductors. While in the 1990s Israel constituted 10% of the global metrology market, today it holds approximately 35% of it.
