[184 Pages Report] The Quantum Photonics Market size was estimated at USD 692.86 million in 2023 and expected to reach USD 894.21 million in 2024, at a CAGR 31.35% to reach USD 4,675.61 million by 2030.
Quantum Photonics is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles of quantum mechanics and photonics to explore and manipulate the fundamental properties of light-matter interactions at the quantum level. It aims to harness the unique characteristics of quantum states, such as superposition, entanglement, and nonlocality, for applications in secure communication, sensing, and computing. Quantum Photonics encompasses a wide range of research areas, including single-photon sources and detectors, quantum optics, photonic integrated circuits, and nonlinear optical processes. In recent years, there has been significant progress in generating single photons on demand using various techniques such as spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC), quantum dot-based emitters, color centers in diamonds (like NV centers), or trapped atoms. Over the years, several factors have been driving the growth of the global quantum photonics market. These include increasing demand for secure data communication owing to rising cybersecurity threats, significant advancements in nanotechnology and materials science enabling the development of compact and efficient photonic devices, and government initiatives supporting research activities in quantum technologies. Despite the positive factors presented by this emerging field, the requirement of high initial investment and technical challenges, such as maintaining coherence time in qubits for practical implementation and integration complexities when combining traditional photonics with quantum elements, have been limiting the market scope.
Apart from these challenges, market players are presenting promising avenues for innovation, which involve developing fault-tolerant architectures to improve the robustness of quantum systems, novel materials, and fabrication techniques to enhance device performance, which is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the global quantum photonics market.
Regional Insights
In the Americas region, particularly North America, there has been substantial investment in research and development (R&D) of quantum photonic devices. In January 2020, the United States Department of Energy announced a USD 625 million investment over five years for establishing Quantum Information Science Research Centers focused on emerging technologies such as quantum networking and computing. These initiatives are expected to propel the demand for quantum photonic components in data center connectivity solutions and optical communication systems. Europe is another region witnessing significant advancements in quantum photonics owing to increased government funding and private-sector collaborations. The Quantum Technologies Flagship Programme was launched by the European Commission in 2018 with a budget of EUR 1 billion over ten years to accelerate Europe’s leadership position in developing cutting-edge quantum technology applications such as secure communication systems and ultra-sensitive sensors. Moreover, ongoing research activities in academic institutions across the region have created a stronger landscape for the EMEA’s quantum photonics market. Asia-Pacific is poised to become one of the fastest-growing regions for the quantum photonics market, with countries including China, Japan, and South Korea leading the way. The Chinese government has significantly increased investments in developing quantum communication networks, which is expected to create a surge in demand for quantum photonic components over the next few years. In addition, several regional private organizations have established their own research institutes focused on advancing quantum technologies, which are expected to foster research and development of these cutting-edge technologies.
