After a false start in 2014, will Apple finally use sapphire display covers in 2016?
Investing activities continues in sapphire display cover supply chain? Why?
Apple will represents 20% of 2015 global sapphire consumption with its iPhone and watch sapphire components. But Lens recently announced plans to raise US$942M and invest US$532M of the proceed to further increasing sapphire growth and finishing capacity. In 2014, Apple, its partners and their suppliers spent close to US$2B to set up a sapphire display cover supply chain. GTAT built and installed 2135 ASF furnaces, Biel and Lens deployed close to 200 wire saws and 1000’s of finishing tools and ancillary equipment. But the projects faced many problems and Apple eventually gave up on sapphire for its iPhone 6. Reasons were multiple but can be summarized in “too early, to fast, too much”. The project was ambitious in its timeframe and targeted outputs while many of the necessary processes and technologies in crystal growth and finishing were still at an early stage of development. But the venture still set the stage for the future: the partners have developed an unrivalled expertise on how to work with sapphire in high volumes and cost controlled environment.

LED Lighting Module Technology Industry and Market Trends 2017 Report by Yole...Yole Developpement
After wide use in general lighting applications, LED module manufacturers are now looking for new applications with higher margins.
LED LIGHTING MODULE MARKET VALUE WILL TREBLE IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS, DRIVEN BY MID-POWER MODULES
Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology is increasingly penetrating general lighting applications, thanks to how easily integrators can use it. The LED lighting module market will therefore deliver a 22.6% compound annual growth rate from 2017-2022.
Mid-power LEDs can be used in almost all applications. Mid-power LED modules are therefore driving the market, providing 60% of 2016’s market revenues. High power LEDs are used only in applications requiring high luminous flux in a small module. As a result, the number of applications using high power LED modules is limited and associated revenues represent about 7% of market revenues.
Chip-on-board (COB) LED modules provide a compromise on size, light emitting surface (LES) area, luminous flux and power consumption. COB LED modules can therefore be used in many applications, and lead the total LED module market in volumes shipped. But as these modules are relatively easy to manufacture in few steps the associated average selling price is low. Consequently, COB LED modules represent only 20% of market revenue.
Flexible LED strips can be directly used as LED lighting systems, mostly in indirect lighting applications. These modules can be easily implemented for residential and commercial lighting. Recent developments, like using LED chips instead of packaged LEDs on a flexible substrate, allow much higher efficiency, opening doors to new applications such as linear lighting.
In this context, Yole Développement estimates that the LED lighting module market, including flexible LED strips, reached nearly $4B in 2016 and will grow to $13.8B by 2022.
This report provides an in-depth analysis of each type of LED module, including technology, trends and market sizes. It covers the whole landscape of LED modules and their potential use in general lighting applications.
Embedded Image and Vision Processing 2017 report by Yole DeveloppementYole Developpement
From algorithms included in the image processing pipeline to neural networks running in vision processors, focus on the evolution of hardware in vision systems and how software disrupts this domain.
SOFTWARE IN VISION SYSTEMS
Vision systems are becoming increasingly important. Therefore, this report shows and explains the close links between embedded software and hardware in vision systems at the technology and market levels. What are the software technologies? How do they impact the hardware? Which hardware is impacted? What kinds of markets are affected? And how will they evolve?
We can consider software in vision systems as having two different levels. The first is very close to the hardware, inscribed inside standalone field programmable gate array (FPGA) or application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chips, or integrated into more complicated architectures. This layer, not often considered, is the most important step in any image treatment after image acquisition by pixels. Image processing, realized in the image signal processor (ISP), has a quite simple function. It must transform a signal from the sensor to an understandable image for the human eye. It is composed as a pipeline of multiple blocks, where each block takes as input the output of the previous block. A lot of different algorithms are implemented to accomplish tasks such as removing artefacts, color correction and reproduction. This is done at a single-pixel or pixel-group level and does not need a lot of memory or power.

Innovative MEMS technologies are spearheading the inkjet printing industry’s transformation.
From technology push to market pull, inkjet printing is entering a new era
Inkjet printing, which offers a flexible, cost-effective solution for printing personal documents, is still largely associated with home and small office printing. In parallel, large & wide format printing for CAD and graphic arts applications considers inkjet printing as its technology-of-choice for single prints and very small print runs. The democratization of digital applications in the early 2000s, spurred on by greater home internet usage and the appearance of digital cameras (which dramatically impacted the photo business), has influenced OEM printer manufacturers to develop high-quality, high-resolution printheads. MEMS technologies represent an attractive solution for creating a higher native density of nozzles-per-printheads at an acceptable manufacturing cost via mass production.
Office printing is one of the sectors that has recently benefited from MEMS printhead performance, competing with entry-level to mid-end laser printers. Moreover, the digital revolution is also gaining momentum in new sectors. For years, commercial and industrial applications have used analog printing solutions like flexography, offset printing, and screen-printing due to their high-volume production capacity and associated lower cost. However, these techniques are restrictive due to the use of a master, and not compatible with short runs < 4000m² printing surface. Today’s industrial and commercial applications require more diversity, as well as more instant service customization. Digital printing, specifically inkjet printing, is the solution to penetrating the three trillion square meters (m²) industrial market.

Innovative MEMS technologies are spearheading the inkjet printing industry’s transformation.
From technology push to market pull, inkjet printing is entering a new era
Inkjet printing, which offers a flexible, cost-effective solution for printing personal documents, is still largely associated with home and small office printing. In parallel, large & wide format printing for CAD and graphic arts applications considers inkjet printing as its technology-of-choice for single prints and very small print runs. The democratization of digital applications in the early 2000s, spurred on by greater home internet usage and the appearance of digital cameras (which dramatically impacted the photo business), has influenced OEM printer manufacturers to develop high-quality, high-resolution printheads. MEMS technologies represent an attractive solution for creating a higher native density of nozzles-per-printheads at an acceptable manufacturing cost via mass production.
Office printing is one of the sectors that has recently benefited from MEMS printhead performance, competing with entry-level to mid-end laser printers. Moreover, the digital revolution is also gaining momentum in new sectors. For years, commercial and industrial applications have used analog printing solutions like flexography, offset printing, and screen-printing due to their high-volume production capacity and associated lower cost. However, these techniques are restrictive due to the use of a master, and not compatible with short runs < 4000m² printing surface. Today’s industrial and commercial applications require more diversity, as well as more instant service customization. Digital printing, specifically inkjet printing, is the solution to penetrating the three trillion square meters (m²) industrial market.

Thin wafer processing and Dicing equipment market - 2016 Report by Yole Devel...Yole Developpement
Strong demand for thinner wafers and smaller die is driving the evolution of dicing technologies
Demand for thinned wafers is growing strongly!
Driven by consumer applications such as smartphones, smart cards and stacked packages, the demand for thinned wafers has increased over recent years.
We estimate that the number of thinned wafers used for MEMS devices, CMOS Image Sensors, memory and logic devices, including those with TSVs, as well as and Power devices exceeded the equivalent of 16.5 million 8-inch wafer starts per year (WSPY) in 2015. This is mainly supported by CMOS Image Sensors, followed by Power devices. We expect that this number of thinned wafers will peak at the equivalent of almost 32 million 8-inch WSPY by 2020. This would represent a 14% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2015 to 2020.
Thinner wafers bring several benefits, including enabling very thin packaging, and therefore better form factors, improved electrical performance and high heat dissipation.
Miniaturization towards smaller, higher-performing, lower-cost device configurations has thinned wafers below 100 µm or even 50 µm for some applications, such as memory and power devices.
Forecasts for the number of thinned wafers by thickness and by application are analyzed in this report. It also includes insights on the number of thinning tools, breakdowns by wafer size, and technological highlights affecting the applications mentioned above...

IRJET- Additive Cum Electronic (ACE) – 3D PrinterIRJET Journal
The document describes a proposed 3D printer called the Additive Cum Electronic (ACE) printer. It aims to integrate both insulating parts and electronic circuits into a single printed object using two nozzles - one for insulating materials and another on a robotic arm for drawing conductive pathways. This would allow electronic devices to be printed without circuit boards in complex shapes. The printer uses fused deposition modeling with PLA or ABS for insulators and a conductive material extruded by the robotic arm nozzle. This integrated process could reduce complexity, space requirements and costs for manufacturing electronic devices.
Imaging Technologies for Automotive 2016 Report by Yole Developpement Yole Developpement
Imaging technology, which is currently mainly cameras, is exploding into the automotive space, and is set to grow at 20% CAGR to reach $7.3B in 2021
INFOTAINMENT AND ADVANCED DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS (ADAS) PROPEL AUTOMOTIVE IMAGING
Since 2008, when a recession acted as a wakeup call to the whole industry, the automotive market has undergone obvious structural change. Capitalizing on technologies initially developed for smartphones, electronics have invaded, and imaging technology is now taking center stage. From less than one camera per car on average in 2015, there will be more than three cameras per car by 2021, which means 371 million automotive imaging devices.
Cameras were initially mounted for ADAS purposes on high-end vehicles, with deep learning image analysis techniques promoting early adoption. The Israeli company Mobileye has been instrumental in bringing this technology to market, along with On Semiconductor, which provided the CMOS image sensor. Copycat competition will probably pick up as the market now justifies initial investment in design and technology. It is now a well-established fact that vision-based autonomous emergency braking (AEB) is possible and saves life. Adoption of forward ADAS cameras will therefore accelerate.
Growth of imaging for automotive is also being fueled by the park assist application, and 360° surround view camera volume is skyrocketing. While it’s becoming mandatory in the US to have a rearview camera, that uptake is dwarfed by 360° surround view cameras, which enable a “bird’s eye view” perspective. This trend is most beneficial to companies like Omnivision at sensor level and Panasonic and Valeo, which have become the main manufacturers of automotive cameras.
Mirror replacement cameras are currently the big unknown and take-off will primarily depend on its appeal and car design regulation. Europe and Japan are at the forefront of this trend, which should become slightly significant by 2021.
Solid state lidar is well talked about and will start to be found in high end cars by 2021. Cost reduction will be a key driver as the push for semi-autonomous driving will be felt more strongly by car manufacturers. The report will analyse the impact of lidar for automotive vision in detail.
Night vision cameras using Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) technology were initially perceived as a status symbol. However, they’re increasingly appreciated for their ability to automatically detect pedestrians and wildlife. LWIR will therefore become integrated into ADAS systems in future.
3D cameras will be limited to in-cabin infotainment and driver monitoring. This technology will be key for luxury cars and therefore is of limited use today.
If any significant semi-autonomous trend picks up, the technology will probably become mandatory, due to safety issues.

21. Between a sheet of paper and a flat-screen TV,
a common theme exists: each can be printed
with inkjet printheads. Inkjet printers were
invented by IBM in the 1970s as an alternative
to dot-matrix printing. However, at the time
IBM’s researchers probably didn’t think that their
invention would be a key process step in the
manufacturing of TVs, electronic components,
and solar cells. It wasn’t until the end of the
last decade that inkjet printheds stepped up to
support all three of these categories – fueled
by the need for fast, low-cost prototyping of
printed circuits, as well as technologies able to
deposit very thin conductive lines on solar cells
without compromising efficiency.
Drop-on-demand (DoD) piezoelectric printheads
are the most suitable devices for depositing a
picoliter of inks where you want, when you want,
and at high frequencies. Compared to thermal
ejection, which is largely used in consumer office,
and commercial printing, piezo printheads are
used in industrial applications because of their
higher resistance and longer lifetime in harsh
environments. Furthermore, piezo ejection
offers more choice in ink selection: for example,
aqueous, solvent, and UV-curable inks.
After lengthy R&D dedicated to utilizing inkjet
printing as a prototyping tool, the first mass-
production market emerged with OLED thin-
film encapsulation for displays (smartphones,
TVs). Now driving the market, OLED display is
doing much more than creating opportunities
for inkjet printing. It is also democratizing inkjet
technology as a new process for manufacturing
electronics and microelectronics. Kateeva, a
US-based company manufacturing printers for
OLED displays, is one of the leading companies
using inkjet printing technology. After being
the first to reach mass production for thin-film
encapsulation, the company is now targeting
RGB (red/green/blue) OLED material deposition
by inkjet for TV LG display is currently in pilot
production using Kateeva printers.
A strong increase in wearables requiring miniaturized,
“close to the skin” devices in certain applications,
is paving the way for flexible printed electronics.
Expensive photolithography processes with mask
technology could be replaced by inkjet printing
processes to deposit conductive lines on-demand.
Inkjet technology demonstrates consistently
improving performances in terms of deposition
accuracy, high-resolution printing, and droplet
volume control. Printheads are one of a printer’s
key components, and they’re becoming increasingly
complex, requiring strong knowledge and experience.
High throughput printing is now reached with
high number of printhead modules in a same
printer. It is worth noting that nozzle positioning

22. INKJET FUNCTIONAL AND ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING FOR ELECTRONICS
INK: THE OTHER KEY PARAMETER OF THE PRINTING PROCESS
Functional printing is leveraging the use of inkjet
printing and opening new market opportunities
for printhead manufacturers. The manufacturing
digital revolution is underway and inkjet printheads
integrated in industrial printing equipment are
expected to reach more than $31 million in 2023,
with a CAGR of 30.3% from 2017 - 2023. Key players
in this field are Konica Minolta, Fujifilm Dimatix,
Océ-Canon, and Xaar. Other Piezo printhead players
are currently very active in the graphics domain,
where the market is growing, However, competition
is focused on gaining its slice of the pie too.
This report contains printhead market share and
printhead market forecasts for functional and
additive printing, along with estimated printer market
shipment by application.
RD still represents a large portion of inkjet printer
acquisition, with 93% of total printers shipped. Mass
production has only just begun for OLED display thin-
film encapsulation. It’s a good sign that the industry is
showing interest in RGB deposition, PCB, and flexible
electronics.

In an inkjet printing process, the “golden
triangle” of key parameters is: Printheads – Inks
– Substrates. Formulating functional inks is a key
challenge in manufacturing applications, since a
diversity of materials must be ejected: conductive
inks, metallic inks, resist inks, and OLED-based
material inks. This report presents an estimate of
the ink volume required in the field of functional
and additive manufacturing. Inkjet printheads’
tolerance in terms of viscosity and surface
tension is limited, and could only be optimized
for a certain type of printhead.
This report also covers the challenges linked to
ink formulation, and the ideal ink properties for
piezo printheads. Collaborations are mentioned,
