The Global Acousto-Optic Devices Market size stood at US$ 469.1 million in 2022. Acousto-optic device sales would expand at 6.3% CAGR from 2022 to 2032. It would surpass a valuation of US$ 861.0 million by 2032.
The market is expanding primarily due to increasing use of optical technologies in mass manufacturing of consumer devices. Need for acousto-optic devices in semiconductor and metal processing applications has also increased. It is a result of rising consumer electronics applications such as micro sensing, flat panel displays, and LIDAR.
Laser-based processes are used to create various stents. Polymer-based bio-absorbable stents are gaining popularity in regions with high healthcare spending, including Europe. They are especially susceptible to the effects of temperature.
Manufacturers discover a need for lasers when long pulse lasers are unable to process them with the required quality. Demand for acousto-optic tunable filters, deflectors, and modulators would increase. It is due to high need for laser-based systems worldwide.
Companies that make medical devices are discovering the necessity to use lasers for creation. These are high-value components with exacting quality standards.
Their production is frequently difficult. More application for lasers is required for metal marking (CE and UDI).
Both the semiconductor and automotive industries produce new components by using lasers. Several semiconductor companies have recently increased their production capacity. It was a response to increasing demand for discrete semiconductor components and semiconductor chips.
SEMI Silicon Manufacturers Group reports that the global silicon wafer area consignments expanded by 2.7%. It went up to 2,920 million square inches during the first quarter of 2020. In the fourth quarter of 2019, the shipments totaled 2,844 million square inches, but decreased by 4.3% year over year.
Surging exports reflect the need for high manufacturing capacity. It further calls for the usage of laser-based equipment and supports the market's expansion.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., for instance, announced in May 2020 that it would invest US$ 12 billion in the construction of a chip plant in Arizona. This move was made to allay national security concerns about safeguarding supply chains. It occurred in the face of the coronavirus pandemic and to move more high-tech manufacturing to the USA.
