According to a recent market study published by Growth Market Reports, titled, “Global Acoustic Microscope Market by microscope, by application, by end use, and by region: Size, Share, Trends and Opportunity Analysis, 2015-2030”, the market was valued at US$ 160.1 Million in 2022 and is anticipated to grow at a growth rate of 3.0% by the year 2030.
The acoustic microscope is a type of microscope that uses sound waves instead of light waves to produce high-resolution images of materials. Acoustic microscope delivers reliable data and is employed in various industries such as bioscience, semiconductors, material science, nanotechnology, and others. The advantage of using acoustic microscopy includes the ability to replace various non-destructive imaging techniques such as X-ray radiography and infrared imaging. The two main types of acoustic microscopes are scanning acoustic microscopes (SAMs) and acoustic microscopy systems (AMSs). SAMs use a focus sound beam to scan the surface of a material and produce an image of its internal structure, while AMSs use a fixed sound beam to examine a large area of a sample.

On the basis of application, the market is bifurcated into non-destructive testing, quality control, and failure analysis. Based on the end use, the market is divided into semiconductor & electronics, automotive, material science, life science, and others. Considering regions, the market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa.
The outbreak of coronavirus disease in 2019 (COVID-19) had a moderate impact on the global acoustic microscope market. Manufacturers in the acoustic microscope market were affected during the pandemic, as sales of semiconductors for automotive applications are primarily influenced by the number of new cars sold and the degree of electrification and digitization of such vehicles. The growth of the automotive semiconductor industry declined by 10% to 27% due to the reduction in the demand for automotive globally. COVID-19 hampered the supply of automotives, due to travel and transport restrictions imposed by countries, such as China and the US. The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic highlighted the available mechanisms for funding research, development, manufacturing, and distribution in the imaging sector. The funding for product commercialization increased during the pandemic. Government agencies and philanthropic organizations helped support research and fund late-stage product development and expand manufacturing capabilities.
As per Growth Market Reports industry analyst Divyanka Sankhe, “Rising demand for acoustic microscope from various end-user industries and technological advancement is expected to contribute to the growth of the Global Acoustic Microscope Market. Growing focus on quality control to ensure that products meet required standards and increasing competition in various industries. Acoustic microscopes are important tools for quality control, as they allow for the non-destructive testing of products to meet the required standards. Increasing focus on quality control drives the demand for non-destructive testing solutions such as acoustic microscopes in various industries, which is expected to fuel the acoustic microscope market in the near future.
