According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Optical Modulators Market is accounted for $29.60 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach $58.12 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 8.8% during the forecast period. Increased demand for fiber-coupled integrated optical modulators and rising demand for cloud-based storage are driving the market growth. However, poor reliability for spaceflight optical modulators, and high operating costs for handling optical modulators are hampering the growth of the market.

An optical Modulator is an optical system that applies a signal-controlled component exhibiting the electro-optic effect to change a light beam. Though, the modulation can be based on the beam’s frequency, direction, and polarization or amplitude. This comprises mainly of one or two pocket cells, with added optical elements such as polarizers. The most common types of electro-optic modulators are phase modulators. Modulating a laser beam’s strength as well as laser frequency stabilization are some of the market’s main application areas for optical modulators.

Based on the end-user, the space and defense segment is going to have lucrative growth during the forecast period, due to the growing demand for technically advanced security and surveillance systems and increasing demand for drone-powered electro-optical surveillance & night-watch systems. The modern developments in the optics system have helped twenty-four-hour situational alertness, revolving rotation, defense gun guidance, and automated object recognition. Furthermore, the massive global military spending, with the armed forces obtaining different devices like optical systems, as well as introducing new technologies in this field is contributing to the segment growth.

By geography, Asia Pacific is going to have high growth during the forecast period, owing to the progress of the telecommunications industry and growing investments in the 5G network that facilitate the optical modulators market growth in the province in upcoming years.
