Furthermore, the current use of silicon for the development of IC (integrated circuits) along with the compatibility of this technology with the present fabrication techniques is encouraging various companies to adopt this technology in the electronic manufacturing industry. Additionally, the implementation of 5G technology for the delivery of higher bandwidth & high-speed data transfer, along with the increasing penetration of IoT, smartphones, and AI-powered devices, is anticipated to drive the demand for the market over the foreseen years.
The outbreak of COVID-19 has negatively impacted the component supply and also disrupted the manufacturing industry globally. With this disruption, along with the reduction in consumer spending during the pandemic, there is a decline in the demand for the market. During the outbreak, internet usage has increased on account of the acceptance of work from home. However, the surge in the use of digital services has come on the cost of cutting down company expenditures as well as lay-off of employees. Thus, the sale of networking components which include silicon photonics, is declining. Amid the pandemic, data center & high-performance computing is the fastest-growing application of this technology.
Furthermore, the 5G network is one of the major applications of silicon photonics. Due to the outbreak, the deployment of the 5G network has been delayed, affecting the growth of the market. However, as the lockdown restriction is easing up, the demand for the market is anticipated to bounce back over the approaching years.
