LED Accessories - Trends sapphire substrate

2014 Many patterned sapphire substrate plant plans to significantly expand its production capacity, LED components required to enhance the brightness, LED factory to improve the use of patterned sapphire substrate volume. And due to 4-inch high demand, so manufacturers will migrate to the new 4-inch production line development.

Taiwanese plant expansion moves the most active, the two sides patterned sapphire substrate plant. DIGITIMESResearch statistics, in 2014 the first quarter of Taiwan patterned sapphire substrate average monthly production capacity of 2.19 million (calculated at 2 inches) to the fourth quarter of 2014, the average monthly production capacity will increase to 4.27 million, and the quarterly rate of increase up to 20% above.

2014 Rui Jie and two plants trillion rather than weighing up to about 50% of the top five manufacturers concentration of 75.3% by the first quarter of 2014 will increase to 81.3% in the fourth quarter before 10 cause if further calculations by the industry concentration degree, if the observed patterned sapphire substrate plant in Taiwan's industrial concentration. From 95.6 percent in the first quarter of 2014 will increase to 97.6%
4th quarter
For a 4-inch sapphire substrate patterned high demand, in 2014 with the two sides to enhance the 4-inch LED epitaxial plant capacity proportion. DIGITIMESResearch consider each quarter capacity utilization, lower the number of new capacity, patterned sapphire substrate outsourcing and other factors. Both sides of the first quarter of 2014, 4-inch sapphire substrate patterned average monthly demand of 462,000, the third quarter will reach a peak of 579,000 in the fourth quarter due to the off-season to enter the industry, the demand will decrease.

Taiwan patterned sapphire substrate plant also supply to mainland industry, and in the strait 4 inch patterned sapphire substrate supply side. Relative continent patterned sapphire substrate plant to supply the amount is not high compared with Taiwan factory. Also, consider the industry has to overcome the problem of yield 4 inch conversion process, so the first quarter of 2014, the two sides can supply 4-inch sapphire substrate patterned average monthly volume of 332,000, the second half of each quarter to March 2014 both the amount will be 544 000, 643 000. If both sides of the above 4-inch LED epitaxial plant needs a few pieces compared to 2014 can be found in the third quarter of 4-inch sapphire substrate patterned tight supply situation is still showing.

4-inch full-year 2014 rose more obvious, patterned sapphire substrate prices respects. $ 51 from the first quarter, will rise to $ 55 in the fourth quarter, an increase of 7.8%, mainly due to price increases by the sapphire crystal rods, but also because of the 4-inch LED epitaxial plant patterned sapphire substrate demand caused by warming; As for the 2-inch substrate is presented edged situation, estimated 2014 annual growth of 4% in the fourth quarter will be watching $ 13.
