Global Market for Molecular, Atomic and Nanoscale Imaging to Reach Nearly $4.4 Billion in 2017

Lack of regulations and liberalization of many of the countries in the Asia-Pacific region have opened up prospective opportunities for microscopes in several end-user industries. The demand of effective microscopy techniques is increasing in these regions due to the progressive shift of manufacturing facilities in the semiconductor manufacturing and electronics industries. Additionally, the greater emphasis on quality levels in industrial and biological research activities has augmented the demand for effective and advanced microscopy techniques.

The electron microscopes market is bigger than that of ion microscopes. A wide range of applications of electron microscopes is the driving factor for this market. Product innovations and increasing applications are also driving the market for electron microscopes.

The fluorescent and bioluminescent probes market is larger than the nanoparticles and quantum dots markets. Commercially available quantum dots are promising competitors of fluorescent and bioluminescent probes. Therefore, the market for quantum dots is increasing at a higher growth rate than the fluorescent and bioluminescent probes market. The optical and thermal market is growing and is experiencing an oligopoly market structure. Pharmaceutical companies and academic research labs are the major end users of optical imaging systems. Due to their relatively low cost, optical imaging systems are preferred over the other kinds of microscopes.
