与2004年第四季度相比，2005年第一季度的全球硅晶圆货运面积下降了不到2％半硅制造商组（SMG）在对硅晶圆行业的季度分析中。
在最近的一个季度，硅晶圆面积的货物总计为14.65亿平方英寸，低于上一季度运输的14.86亿平方英尺。新的季度总面积货物比2004年第一季度的货物低4％。
SEMI SMG董事长兼Shin-Etsu Handotai Co.有限公司的Makoto Tsukada说：“在创纪录的一年中，我们期望并经历了2005年第一季度的单位发货略有下降。看到300毫米晶圆货量的强烈顺序增长。”
Silicon wafers are the fundamental building material for semiconductors, which in turn, are vital components of virtually all electronics goods, including computers, telecommunications products, and consumer electronics. The highly engineered thin round disks are produced in various diameters (from one inch to 12 inches) and serve as the substrate material on which most semiconductor devices or "chips" are fabricated.
All data cited in this release is inclusive of polished silicon wafers, including virgin test wafers, epitaxial silicon wafers, and non-polished silicon wafers shipped by the wafer manufacturers to the end-users.
The Silicon Manufacturers Group acts as an independent special interest group within the SEMI structure and is open to SEMI members involved in manufacturing polycrystalline silicon, monocrystalline silicon or silicon wafers (e.g., as cut, polished, epi, etc.). The purpose of the group is to facilitate collective efforts on issues related to the silicon industry including the acquisition of market information and statistics about the silicon industry and the semiconductor market.
