Optical Limiter Market Trends

• 
  

  Rising use of cutting-edge automotive electronics is driving the market growth

  
  

Market CAGR for optical limiter is being driven by the rising use of cutting-edge automotive electronics. When a material's optical transmission decreases as a result of an increase in laser fluency, this phenomenon is known as optical limiting. The shielding of human eyes and sensors from powerful laser radiation is made possible by this characteristic.

Additionally, the desire for more secure driving experiences, smarter transportation systems, and sustainability issues are all contributing to an increase in the need for automotive electronics in the transportation sector. In today's cutting-edge vehicle electronics systems, optical coatings are essential. Opportunities for the coatings with optical properties market are presented by the advancement of assistance for drivers systems, communication technology, and entertainment features in automobiles. Automotive parts including switches, light guides, headlight lenses, and taillights all require optical coatings. They provide display windows on public transit vehicles with protection, as well. Anti-reflection (AR) coatings, high reflecting coatings, and filter coatings are the preferred optical coating types in transportation.

Optical coatings are used in many industries, including semiconductors, high-temperature lamp tubing, telecommunications, optics, and microelectronics. They are essential for wafer modification, ICs, and PCB coating in the electronics and semiconductor industry, allowing components to resist extreme temperature gradients and quick thermal processing. New-generation wafers are now being used in this industry, which has increased interest in high-purity coatings with optical properties that improve product performance. Changes in raw material costs have an impact on optical coatings' efficiency and overall market costs, thus limiting market expansion.

For instance, according to the Federation of Automotive Dealers Associations (FADA), a national association of vehicle dealers in India, retail luxury car sales would rise by 19.7% in December 2021 as a result of expanding inventory and collaborations with OEMs. Rising sales of high-end and ultra-luxury vehicles as a result will drive the optoelectronics industry over the forecast period. Thus, result in driving the Optical Limiter market revenue.

Optical Limiter Market Segment Insights

Optical Limiter Type Insights

The Optical Limiter Market segmentation, based on type includes Fixed Optical Limiter, and Adjustable Optical Limiter. The adjustable optical limiter segment dominated the market. It is shown how to use an optical clamp and completely adjustable self-limiter with geometry appropriate for usage with fiber optics. The refractive index of the guiding film is decreased by edge-coupled light entering a silicon thin film on a doped silicon substrate, finally bringing it to the cutoff state.

Optical Limiter Application Insights

The Optical Limiter Market segmentation, based on Application, includes Fiber Optic Communication System, Optical Transmission System, and Others. The fiber optic communication System category generated the most income. Fiber-optic communication is a technique for sending short bursts of infrared or visible light across an optical fiber to transport data from one location to another. Telecommunications firms employ optical fiber to deliver cable television transmissions, Internet connectivity, and telephone signals.

One of the main business strategies employed by manufacturers is to produce locally to reduce operational expenses in the global Optical Limiter industry to develop market sector and provide benefits to customers. In recent years, the Optical Limiter industry has provided some of the communication industry's most important benefits. Major players in the Optical Limiter market, including Lumentum Holdings Inc., Coherent Inc., Thorlabs Inc., Newport Corporation, Edmund Optics Inc., Jenoptik AG, MKS Instruments Inc., Finisar Corporation, Fujitsu Optical Components Ltd. and others, invest in operations for research and development in an effort to improve market demand.

Coherent, Inc., develops, produces, and offers support for laser equipment and related specialty components from its headquarters in Santa Clara, California. With five other individuals, physicist James Hobart started Coherent in May 1966. In 1970, it became public. Coherent developed its line of lasers over time to include those used in a variety of fields and applications. Its revenues increased from $400 million to roughly $2 billion between 2004 and 2021, thanks in part to a number of acquisitions. After acquiring Coherent, Inc. in 2022, II-VI Incorporated changed its name to Coherent Corp. In July 2022, By combining their businesses through this transaction, II?VI and Coherent became a leader in materials, networking, and lasers. The acquisition combined Coherent's scale, where laser systems are used, with II-VI's scale at value chain levels where material expertise is required.

Jenoptik AG is an integrated photonics business situated in Jena, Germany. The business is a member of the TecDAX stock index and is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. The company's ancestry may be traced back to the original Carl Zeiss AG firm. VEB Zeiss Jena changed its name to Zeiss Jena GmbH after Germany's unification. The business later sold Carl Zeiss AG its optical and microscope operations, effectively reuniting the former pre-war Zeiss enterprise. In September 2020, Jenoptik purchased the Hamburg-based optics company TRIOPTICS, an international provider of manufacturing systems and test gear for optical components.
