Epitaxial Wafer: Market Segmentation

An epitaxial wafer, variously called epi wafer, is a wafer of semiconducting material composed by epitaxial growth or epitaxy to be used in photonics, spintronics, microelectronics, or photovoltaics. Epitaxy is the process of depositing thin layers of semiconductor materials onto the surface of a single crystal substrate. Each of these layers is known as an epilayer. Epitaxy is mainly done to enhance the functionality of wafers.
