Japan Optoelectronics Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Japan Optoelectronics Market Analysis

The Japan Optoelectronics Market size is estimated at USD 6.29 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 10.04 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 9.80% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

• Optoelectronics include devices that either convert light energy to electricity or electricity to light energy. These devices account for a significant share of the semiconductors market and witness growing consumption across various verticals. In the current market scenario, two- and one-dimensional electron channels, including quantum wells and quantum wires, and cells for electrons known as quantum boxes or quantum dots, are currently being fabricated on large wafers and used in optoelectronic devices.
• The advancement in quantum semiconductor heterostructures and the progress in heterostructure technology are the immediate outcomes of the new advances in fabrication techniques in the studied market. The growing consumption of advanced manufacturing and fabricating technologies is further driving the consumption of optoelectronic components in the industrial sector, using laser and machine vision systems.
• Advances in optoelectronics have made considerable contributions to the efficient transmission of information via optical fibers (including communication between processing machines and within them), to the high-capacity mass storage of data in laser disks, and several other specific applications.
• Moreover, the increasing demand in the automotive industry, specifically with the increase in the adoption of electric vehicles, self-driven trucks, and autonomous vehicles, is expected to boost optoelectronic devices' adoption, further driving the market.
• The demand for the optocoupler is expected to pick momentum as the demand for smartphones, electric vehicles, and other optocoupler-supporting devices increases in the country are growing significantly. Optocouplers are extensively used in communications systems. In January 2022, according to the Japanese government, the United States and Japan recently signed an agreement to jointly invest approximately USD 4.5 billion to develop beyond 5G technologies. Such advancements call for efficient optocouplers in Japan.
• Further, in November 2022, Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation (SSS) announced the launch of a fee-based service on its edge AI sensing platform AITRIOS. The service is designed to streamline developing and implementing sensing solutions using edge devices such as AI cameras. This fee-based service comprising AITRIOS is Console Developer Edition, intended mainly to support application and AI developers working to create and operate solutions.
