Silicon Photonics blends the components of electrical circuits with those of optical. Electric signals are produced when photons (light particles) interact quantum mechanically with electrons in a semiconductor. These can be amplified and used for signal processing, control, and data transmission. The rising use of cloud-based services, which demand a high-speed data transfer, is one of the factors propelling the growth of the global Silicon Photonics market. Additionally, a significant element boosting the market's expansion is the growing deployment of 5G technology. The market for silicon photonics is also driven by the increasing demand for smaller electrical devices.
The global Silicon Photonics Market size is estimated to be valued at US$ 1,584.8 Million in 2022 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 23.03% between 2023 and 2030.

*Definition- Silicon Photonics combines the elements of optics with those of electronic circuits. Photons (light particles) are coupled to electrons in a semiconductor, and the resulting quantum-mechanical interactions generate electric signals. These can be amplified and used for data transmission, signal processing, and control.
