Market Segmentation

Global Photonic Integrated Circuits (PIC) Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032 offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:

 

Market Breakup Categories
Integration Type Monolithic Integration, Hybrid Integration
Raw material III-V Material, Lithium Niobate, Silica-on-Silicon, Silicon-on-Insulator, Others.
Component Lasers, Modulators, Detectors, Attenuators, Multiplexers/De-multiplexers, Optical Amplifiers.
Application Telecommunications, Biomedical, Data Centers, Optical Sensors(LiDAR).
Region North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and Africa

 

Monolithic integration is expected to hold significant share in the photonic integrated circuits (PIC) market in the forecast period.

Monolithic integration features the entire circuit constructed on a single piece of silicon or another semiconductor. Integrating laser sources and photodetectors in silicon photonic integrated circuits (Si-PICs) through the heteroepitaxy of III-V semiconductors on Si offers efficient large-scale production. Currently, most sophisticated PICs contain over 1000 optical components on a single, monolithic, InP-based chip. Some of the key companies offering monolithic PICs include Infinera and Lumentum Holdings Inc.

 

III-V Materials dominates the photonic integrated circuits (PIC) market share

III-V Material also holds a major market share. The group III-V materials are direct-bandgap materials that can readily facilitate photons required to generate light.  Hence, they are used to develop photonic devices and integrated circuits when monolithic integration is required.
