Silicon Photonics Market by Product (Transceivers, Variable Optical Attenuators, Switches, Sensors and Cables), Components (Lasers, Modulators, Optical Waveguides, Optical Interconnects, Photodetectors) - Global Forecast to 2030

The silicon photonics market was valued at USD 2.16 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 9.65 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 29.5% during the forecast period.

One of the major drivers in the silicon photonics market is increasing demand for fast data transmission and power-efficient solutions in data centers, cloud computing, and 5G networks, where silicon photonics offers faster, power-efficient data transfer compared to traditional solutions.

Switch is expected to have the second-largest market size in terms of product during the forecast period.

Switches are forecasted to encompass a significant market size in the silicon photonics market due to their vital role in routing high-speed data in modern data centers and telecommunication networks. As cloud computing and high-performance computing demands continue rising, ultra-fast and power-efficient optical switching solutions are increasingly becoming significant, enabling rapid data transfer and minimal latency in large-scale networks. Silicon photonic switches have the benefits of miniaturization, low power, and scalability, rendering them in high demand for future network architectures. Major technology companies are heavily investing in creating and applying silicon-based optical switches to enable migration to 400GbE and beyond, propelled by the data traffic explosion. Combining these switches with advanced photonic integrated circuits further increases network flexibility and operational efficiency.

The telecommunication application in silicon photonics to account for the second-largest market size during the forecast period

The telecommunication sector is poised to capture a significant market size of the silicon photonics market due to the rapid expansion of 5G and future 6G networks that are extremely high-speed and highly reliable in data transmission. Silicon photonics technology enables optical elements to be developed on top of silicon chips with high bandwidth, low power consumption, and scalable cost competitiveness—core expectations for future generations of telecom infrastructure. As subscriptions for global broadband and mobile connections grow, telecommunication operators are adopting silicon photonics for access and core networks to contain the growth of the data explosion and facilitate future-generation services.

Asia Pacific is expected to exhibit the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Asia Pacific will see the highest market growth in the silicon photonics market due to the rapid development of data centers, 5G infrastructures, and the rapidly increasing adoption of cloud computing and IoT technologies. China, Japan, and India are leading this trend with the support of favorable government policies, rising investments, and a huge pool of engineers. The high-growth telecommunication and data traffic requirements of the region are driving demand for energy-efficient, high-speed silicon photonics solutions. Large global and local firms are setting up R&D and manufacturing facilities in Asia Pacific to take advantage of these trends.
