Global Photoelectric Detectors Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032

The global Photoelectric Detectors market size is expected to reach $ 3406 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 7.7% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

A photodetector is a sensor that can sense light or other electromagnetic energy. It can convert photons into electric current, and the absorbed photons form electron-hole pairs. Photodetectors include photodiodes and phototransistors. Quantum efficiency is used to define the percentage of photons received by photodetectors on the light-receiving surface that are converted into electron-hole pairs. That is, the quantum efficiency is equal to the number of photogenerated electrons divided by the number of incident photons.

Key parameters:

Sensitivity (A/W): APD up to 100A/W (ordinary PD only 0.5A/W)

Dark current: InGaAs APD is 1-2 orders of magnitude lower than Si

Quantum efficiency: GaAsP PMT >40% at 400nm

Market: consumer electronics dominate, automotive LiDAR is the biggest growth point (or 35% share in 2030)

Trend: short-wave infrared popularization, single-photon array integration, AI noise reduction become the direction of technological breakthrough.
