Silicon Photonics Market by Product (Transceivers, Variable Optical Attenuators, Switches, Sensors, and Cables), By Components (Lasers, Modulators, Optical Waveguides, Optical Interconnects, Photodetectors) - Global Forecast to 2029
The silicon photonics market was valued at USD 2.16 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 7.52 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 28.3% from 2024 to 2029.
The demand for high-speed broadband service is one of the major drivers in the market. The rising demand for new broadband connections and high-speed internet plans has prompted telecom service providers to invest in developing new network technologies, including silicon photonics. These technologies enable high-speed broadband connections and offer more broadband services over the existing network infrastructure.The increasing complexity of integrating on-chip lasers is one of the major restraints in the market. Lasers are required for high-performance optical data transmission because they create pure light in frequency and colors. Silicon photonics either uses an on-chip or off-chip light source. An on-chip light source refers to a light-emitting component integrated directly onto a semiconductor chip that is typically small and has lower power consumption than the off-chip light source. However, incorporating laser sources on a silicon chip is difficult as it increases the complexity. Also, different light sources have different spectral compositions; therefore, integrating on-chip laser is a complex process, hindering market growth.
Transceivers to account for the largest share of silicon photonics market during the forecast period
The Transceivers segment is expected to dominate the silicon photonics market during the forecast period. The transceivers sector is likely to dominate the silicon photonics market over the forecast period. Transceivers are utilized in a variety of applications, including high-performance computing, data centers, and telecommunications. A transceiver combines a transmitter and a receiver on a single platform. It is a bidirectional gadget that transmits and receives data. This gadget is generally utilized in cables or optical fiber networks. Multiple devices can connect to the same bus, making them ideal for parallel backplane applications like telephony and industrial infrastructure. An electronic switch connects the transmitter and receiver to the same antenna, preventing the transmitter's output from hurting the receiver.
The laser component in silicon photonics to account for largest market size during the forecast period.
Silicon lasers are fabricated using silicon and other materials, including indium phosphide and gallium arsenide. Silicon lasers are crucial to achieving integrated silicon photonics.
Ge-on-Si lasers and III-V-based Si lasers are two types of lasers. III-V-based Si laser is currently the most practical way of obtaining on-chip light sources in silicon photonics. III-V-based silicon lasers formed via bonding techniques demonstrate the best performance and display the best opportunity for use in silicon photonic manufacturing processes. However, in the long term, direct heteroepitaxial growth of III-V materials on Si seems more promising for low-cost, high-yield fabrication.
North America is expected to have the largest market during the forecast period.
North America is one of the leading markets for networking-based services and has many data centers. The region is expected to command the silicon photonics market in the coming years by accounting for the largest market share. It is the hub of many technology companies and R&D establishments, leading to prominent innovations and technological advancements. Also, there is a huge and steady flow of monetary investment available for research-related activities from governments and venture capitalists.
