The market has been growing rapidly over the past few years. Photonics is the branch of physics that deals with the generation, emission, transmission, modulation, signal processing, switching, amplification, and detection of light. Photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are optical devices fabricated on a chip to interconnect different photonic functional elements and transmit light signals. PICs facilitate the miniaturization and integration of various optical components which enables the development of compact and efficient optical systems for both datacom and telecom applications. Factors such as exponential growth in data traffic, rapid adoption of cloud services, growing internet penetration, and increasing demand for bandwidth intensive services are fueling the demand for PICs globally. Moreover, continuous advancements in manufacturing processes have allowed the integration of more complex functions on a chip, thereby enabling the development of next generation photonic systems. The global photonic IC market is projected to grow significantly over the coming years.

Market Dynamics:

The global photonic IC market is expected to witness high growth over the forecast period owing to several factors. Rapid growth in data traffic across the world is one of the major drivers for the market. According to Cisco, a provider of networking and telecommunication solutions, global IP traffic reached 4.8 zettabytes per year by 2022, up from 1.5 zettabytes per year in 2017. This exponential growth in data traffic is generating significant demand for high bandwidth optical interconnects and switching solutions based on PICs. Growing popularity of cloud services is another key driver as it is accelerating the deployment of high-speed data centers. Availability of government funding for photonics R&D projects and rising investments by private players in optical communication technologies is also augmenting the growth of the photonic IC market. However, high initial costs associated with the fabrication of photonic ICs as compared to electronic ICs can hinder the market growth. Nevertheless, advancements in integration technologies are expected to reduce costs significantly in the coming years. The growing market for Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) systems for applications such as self-driving cars and industrial automation also presents an opportunistic avenue for photonics manufacturers over the forecast period.
