Market and Product Insights

Photonic integrated circuit (PIC) is a sophisticated integrated circuit incorporating multiple optical devices/functions into a unique optical package. The main difference between a photonic integrated circuit and an electronic circuit is that photonic ICs use photons as data carriers unlike electronic ICs which use electrons for transferring data. In addition, a photonic integrated circuit is analogous to electronic integrated circuits. The photonic integrated circuits (PIC) market is still in the nascent stage and is poised to offer immense growth potential during the forecast period 2015 – 2022.

Competitive Insights

The global photonic integrated circuits (PIC) market is highly fragmented and competitive. The top four players in the photonic integrated circuits (PIC) market accounted for less than forty five percent of the global market revenue share in 2014. Some of the leading players identified in the photonic integrated circuits (PIC) ecosystem include Infinera Corporation (the U.S.), JDS Uniphase Corporation (the U.S.), Alcatel-Lucent S.A. (France), NeoPhotonics Corporation (the U.S.), Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd (China), Intel Corporation (the U.S.), and Avago Technologies Ltd. (Singapore). In addition, the photonic IC market is characterized by the presence of large number of small players, accounting for trivial market share individually. Some of these players include including Ciena Corporation (the U.S.), Finisar Corporation (the U.S.), Mellanox Technologies Ltd. (Israel) and Luxtera Inc (the U.S.) among others. Competition among existing market players is comparatively high owing to the fragmented nature of the industry. Manufacturers compete on the basis of product innovation and technology differentiation. As such, manufacturers are increasingly focused towards research and development activities. Thus, the intensity of competition in the market is expected to remain high throughout the forecast period 2015 – 2022.
