Also, growing expenditures on research and development of several optical module solutions to support the construction of extremely wide broadband pipelines boosts the optoelectronics market statistics to accommodate significant data traffic volumes in the ICT industry. Moreover, the rising demand for LED lighting among the population due to the focus on energy efficiency and long lifespan also drives the demand for optoelectronic components such as LEDs and OLEDs.

    Restraint:

    High manufacturing costs of optoelectronics technology mainly hampers the growth of market statistics. Furthermore, the imposition of strict regulations and standards in terms of optoelectronics devices and systems also results in limited market adoption. Moreover, the lack of supporting infrastructure such as optical fiber networks hampers the market growth in terms of meeting the complete potential of optoelectronics systems and technologies.

    Opportunities:

    The advancements in smart devices such as smartphones, tablets, and wearables are anticipated to offer lucrative opportunities for market growth in terms of adaptive lighting and high-quality imaging and video capture. Moreover, the scope of improvements in optical communication components such as infrared (IR) sensors and transmitters is anticipated to offer creative opportunities for optoelectronics to witness increased applications in short-range communication protocols such as IrDA and NFC.

    Optoelectronics Market Segmentation:



    By Type

    The type segment is separated into display modules, fiber & cable, transceiver modules, source & detectors, receivers, and others. The fiber & cables segment contributed largest shares to the optoelectronics market growth in 2022. Growing prevalence of fiber optical communications to meet requirements for high bandwidth, transmission over long distance, or immunity to electromagnetic interference supports the demand for such fiber & cables as an alternative to electrical cabling. Such type of communication also enables the transmission of voice, video, and telemetry through various networks such as local area networks, computer networks, and even over long distances. Moreover, display modules segment is anticipated to contribute substantial shares to the market growth during the forecast period. Increased demand for highly sophisticated glass and polymer modules, especially for medical products such as blood sugar meters, POC (point-of-care) components and units and optical systems and units for dental scanners is expected to boost the segmental growth.

    By Device Material

    The device material segment is divided into silicon germanium, silicon carbide, gallium nitride, gallium phosphide, indium phosphide and gallium arsenide. The gallium nitride segment contributed the largest shares to the market growth in 2022. The wurtzite crystallographic form of gallium nitride (GaN) results in high built-in electric fields with low growth temperatures. GaN is a direct bandgap semiconductor which belongs to the binary III/V group suitable for the creation of high-power transistors that function efficiently even in high-temperature environments. Thus, increased usage of such material, especially in applications that fall within the green/blue/UV spectral range with a low-medium voltage range (200–600 V) supports the segmental growth. Moreover, the silicon carbide (SiC) segment is also estimated to support the market growth in terms of volume due to large usage in a third-generation semiconductors such as photonic integrated circuits (PICs). The growing advancements in the development of PICs are expected to boost the demand for SiC for broad functionalities such as wide bandgap, controllable artificial spin defects, high refractive index, high optical nonlinearities, and a CMOS-compatible fabrication process.

    By Light Source

    The light source segment is separated into visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, and infrared. The ultraviolet segment is expected to contribute significant shares to the market growth during the forecast period. The segmental growth is mainly attributed to the large-scale absorption of ultraviolet light as photon energy that exceeds the band gap energy of numerous materials. Although optical glasses remain transparent to visible light, such glasses also experience alterations in the chemical makeup due to excitation caused by ultraviolet light such as bond breakage. Thus, such characteristics play a significant role in laser material processing methods, including pulsed laser deposition, laser ablation, and fiber Bragg grating fabrication. Additionally, ultraviolet light finds major applications for sterilizing water and medical instruments.

    By Component

    The component segment is categorized into photo voltaic (PV) cells, optocouplers, image sensors, light-emitting diodes (LED), a laser diode (LD), and infrared components (IR). The laser diode (LD) segment accounted for largest share contribution to the market growth in 2022. The favorable demand for laser diodes due to unique features such as single color wavelength, straight trajectory, consistent phase, rapid pulse response, and concentrated intensity supports large usage in various applications such as optical discs (OPU), multifunctional equipment, and laser printers. Further, the light-emitting diodes (LED) segment is anticipated to witness significant growth during the forecast period in terms of value and volume. In the context of optoelectronic applications, the wide range of advantages offered by LEDs as compared to traditional light sources is estimated to support segmental growth for extended lifespan, lower power usage, greater brightness, and improved spectral accuracy.

    By End Use

    The end-user segment comprises automotive, consumer electronics, industrial, aerospace, medical, and others. The consumer electronics segment accounted for the largest share contribution to the market growth in 2022. Growing adoption of optoelectronics for several applications in consumer electronics such as smartphones, LED projectors, high-end cameras, organic LEDs, smart television displays, and flexible 3-D displays results in high demand for optoelectronics, especially as optical interconnects, LED lighting and illumination, optical sensors, and solar cells. Moreover, the automotive segment is also anticipated to support market growth in terms of volume and value. The scope of advancements within automotive industry in terms of advanced technological tools such as lasers to improve productivity, ensure quality control, and facilitate product development is estimated to support the demand for optoelectronics.
