Market Insight

The photodiode sensor is the semiconductor device that senses the emitted light and converts it into the electric signals such as voltage or current. The conversion is based on the mode of operation of the operating device. A photodiode consists of a p-n junction and an intrinsic layer between p and n layers. It produces photocurrent by generating electron-hole pairs, due to the absorption of light in the intrinsic or depletion region. The photocurrent thus generated is proportional to the absorbed light intensity. The photodiode sensors are widely used in the Cameras, Medical devices, Safety equipment, Optical communication devices, Position sensors, Automotive devices, Surveying instruments and other applications.

The extensive uses of the photodiode sensors in the medical instruments including spectroscopic, medical imagining, pulse oximetry and several others are driving the growth of photodiode sensors. In addition, the growing demand of photodiode sensors in the various end use industries such as Aerospace and defense, healthcare, Telecommunication, Consumer Electronics, automotive and others are likely to boost the growth of photodiode sensors market. Furthermore, the photodiode sensors are rapidly used in the portable barcode scanners used in the retail industry to provide the businesses tracks of the high volume of information. Growing use of portable barcode scanners in the retail industry is expected to escalate the market growth in upcoming years.

However, the photodiode sensor requires high operating voltage and it has low response time at large distance that may restrain the growth of photodiode sensors. Moreover, ongoing innovations and developments on the optical sensing sectors are projected to create more opportunities for the photodiode sensors over the forecast period.
