Global IGZO Display Market
IGZO (indium gallium zinc oxide), a semiconductor that can be used to make transparent transistors. It has 20 to 50 times more electron mobility as compared to amorphous silicon. IGZO is said to be the future of high resolution displays that allows high pixel densities and help in reducing the power consumption. This technology is commercially adopted by big players in the market. This technology is used in flat-panel displays such as monitor’s, smartphones, and tablets. There are five thin transparent layers in the monitor display that allows the light to escape that enables us to see the display. Behind the monitor, a transparent layer of glass with millions of tiny electrodes is present. Each pixel comes with a transparent transistor. The performance and quality of display depends on the size of these transparent transistors. The IGZO display market is crucial for the success of various products with high resolution display panel. Growing demand of high resolution display for better image quality is expected to drive IGZO market in the future.

4. GLOBAL <strong>IGZO</strong> DISPLAY – MARKET FORCES<br />
In the display industry flexible display is an emerging trend where most of the companies are<br />
investing in R&D to come up with new flexible displays with high resolution. Despite this fact that<br />
the companies are investing more to come up with new technology, flat panel will remain the<br />
dominant product in the display industry. The success rate of flat panel displays can be seen in all<br />
the segments such as TV sets at home, mobile handsets, portable media devices etc. Various types of<br />
flat panel displays are available in the market such as TFT, IPS, Resistive Touchscreen, Capacitive<br />
Touchscreen, monitors, OLED, AMOLED, Super AMOLED, Tactile, and Gorilla Glass.<br />
4.1. MARKET DRIVERS<br />
4.1.1. Rise in the demand for higher resolution displays driving the <strong>IGZO</strong> market<br />
The demand for flat-panel displays with high resolution is on the rise. The clarity of pictures due to<br />
high pixels in these devices is attracting the consumers to use these products. Other factors<br />
impacting the market are consumers demand for long battery life, touch sensitivity and ease of use in<br />
the electronic products especially in the portable devices is driving the market for <strong>IGZO</strong> displays.<br />
The growing market for monitors, smartphones, and tablet PCs, wearable devices such as smart<br />
watches is resulting in the high growth of <strong>IGZO</strong> displays. The global display applications market is<br />
forecast to reach $377bn by 2020 growing at a CAGR of 30.2%.<br />
TFT (Thin Film Transistor) technology is the most commonly used display units in the mobile<br />
phones. It offers high quality image but does not gives a clear view in direct light, and also consumes<br />
more power, hence, less battery friendly. Due to such limitations of few displays the companies are<br />
coming up with new technologies that are more user-friendly. High adoption rate of these<br />
technologies among the customers is driving the display industry<br />
4.1.2. <strong>Display</strong> industry growth based on related markets<br />
Replacement of CRT desktop monitors and TVs with notebook PCs and flat panel screens,<br />
respectively. Hence, television and display industry has seen a quick adaptation to flat panels in the<br />
advanced economies. The adoption of smartphones from old mobile handsets has flourished the<br />
display business. High sales of consumer electronic products are helping the display industry to gain<br />
profit. The flat panel display industry is expected to increase its growth potential by commercializing<br />
new technologies that may create new market to generate more revenues.
