Global Uncooled Vanadium Oxide Infrared Detectors Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Uncooled Vanadium Oxide Infrared Detectors market size is predicted to grow from US$ 1532 million in 2025 to US$ 2156 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2025 to 2031.

Uncooled vanadium oxide (VOx) infrared detectors are devices used in thermal imaging applications to detect infrared radiation emitted by objects. Unlike cooled infrared detectors that require cooling systems like cryogenic cooling to operate, uncooled detectors operate at or near room temperature without the need for additional cooling.



VOx is a material known for its temperature-sensitive electrical properties. When exposed to infrared radiation, the electrical resistance of VOx changes. This change in resistance is utilized to detect and measure the incoming infrared radiation, converting it into an electrical signal.



Uncooled VOx detectors are often used in various applications such as night vision systems, thermal cameras, medical imaging, and industrial monitoring. Their ability to operate without cooling systems simplifies their design, reduces costs, and makes them more compact and portable for different applications.

At present, only a few countries in the world, such as the United States, Japan, Israel, and China, have mastered the design technology of vanadium oxide uncooled infrared chips, and major foreign suppliers have certain export restrictions on my country. Due to the special sensitivity of infrared products, special equipment products are often subject to national product and technology monopoly. In particular, leading countries in technology are highly confidential in infrared thermal imaging products and technologies for special equipment, resulting in conflicts between infrared product companies in different countries. Direct market competition generally does not occur in the defense field. Specifically, the competition in this industry is concentrated in the United States, Japan, and Israel. Among them, the United States maintains its lead with its strong scientific research advantages and occupies an absolutely dominant position in the international special equipment market. High-end products are under control abroad. Currently, with the development of domestic technology, some mid-range products are being imported. With the rise of domestic domestic enterprises, localized supply has begun to bear fruit, and the share of imports is getting smaller and smaller. It is predicted that in the next few years, the country will have the conditions for exporting.

The price of the product is currently mainly limited by manufacturing costs and technology. Although the impact of raw materials has been greater in recent years, due to the reduction in manufacturing costs, the overall trend has been that prices have been declining in recent years. The rise in raw material chips has brought about an increase in costs. However, in order to maintain stable customers, some companies selectively bear the cost increases caused by rising raw material prices, which has affected the company"s gross profit decline.
