VCSEL Market Overview
VCSEL stands for vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers. Infrared illuminations are made with VCSELs because they have several advantages, including low cost, high reliability, efficiency, narrow emission spectrum, and a low diverging cylindrical beam. Surveillance, imaging, covert operations, and detection are all applications for infrared illuminators in a variety of end-use sectors, including the military. The demand for VCSELs has been significantly impacted as a result of this. The global VCSEL market is expected to grow considerably in the forecast period. The growing adoption of medical applications and proximity sensing is a crucial factor that is expected to boosts the growth of the global VCSEL market over the forthcoming years. Furthermore, substantial growth in the use of VCSELs for data communication and the rising use of VCSELs in infrared illuminations are anticipated to support the expansion of the market in the coming years. In addition, the increasing focus on research and development activities is projected to propel the market growth and make various growth opportunities for the players in the coming years.
Besides this, the increase in the demand for VCSELs with technological developments in the automotive electronics sector is anticipated to escalate the market’s growth in the near future. Similarly, the development of the consumer electronics sector and the arrival of the laser-based hard disc is expected to intensify the growth of the overall market in the forthcoming years. On the downside, the limited data transmission range is projected to control the market’s growth in the forecast period. Apart from this, the increase in the number of applications and the growing demand for gallium arsenide is further estimated to boost the development of the global VCSEL market during the forecast period.

Covid-19 Impact on VCSEL Market
Like many other industries, COVID-19 badly knocked the electronic and semiconductor industries. This unprecedented event has impacted nearly 230 countries in just a few weeks, resulting in the forced shutdown of manufacturing and transportation activities within and across the countries. This has directly affected the overall sector's growth. It is estimated that COVID-19 to leave more than USD 30 billion impacts on the electronics and semiconductor industry. The sector is majorly affected due to transport restrictions on major electronics and semiconductor raw material providers. However, the emerging need for semiconductors in several industries will offer rapid market recovery over the future period.
