List of Tables

The Chemical Mechanical Polishing Market was valued at USD 5.63 billion in 2023, expected to reach USD 6.10 billion in 2024, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.40%, to USD 9.28 billion by 2030.

Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) is a process used in semiconductor manufacturing to planarize semiconductor wafers by using a combination of chemical slurry and mechanical force. CMP is pivotal for achieving the required flatness and smoothness at the nanometer level, essential for subsequent photolithography processes. The necessity of CMP lies in its ability to provide a uniform surface, which is critical for the fabrication of miniaturized and high-performance semiconductor devices. Its applications extend to polishing interlayer dielectrics, metal layers, and other materials crucial for integrated circuit fabrication. The end-use scope of CMP spans across key industries such as electronics, consumer technology, automotive, and telecommunications.
