As a result, there have been significant investments in the establishment of state-of-the-art production and manufacturing facilities for these products in developed as well as developing countries. For instance, in 2019, the European Commission invested € 25.0 million to set-up a new VCSEL-based manufacturing plant in Berlin, Germany, which is capable of mass production of the semiconductor chips focused on datacom and sensing based applications. Similarly, Huawei, a global telecom giant, invested in Vertilite, a Chinese start-up, specialized in the development of a broad range of VCSEL products for numerous applications, including data communication.
Based on material, the VCSEL for the data communication market is segmented into Gallium Nitride (GaN), Gallium Arsenide (GaAs), Indium Phosphide (InP), and Other. Gallium arsenide accounted for more than 50% market share in 2019. The demand is attributed to its increase in usage compared to other materials, owing to advantages offered such as speed for data communication. Based on type, the multi-mode segment led the market in 2019 and is expected to witness a higher CAGR during the forecast period. Multi-mode VCSELs are the preferred type as they confer modulation enhancements over proton VCSELs and consistent improvements over single-mode VCSELs.
In terms of geography, APAC led the VCSEL for the data communication market in 2019. VCSELs are extensively used across several applications owing to advantages such as high reliability, compact size, low power requirements, and low manufacturing costs. The growth of the telecommunication sector in APAC, and increasing usage of internet and cloud architecture are propelling the market growth in this region.
