Global PM Fiber Market Size:
The Global PM Fiber Market (polarization maintaining) was valued at more than USD 730 million in 2018 and is expected to grow at a CAGR higher than 7.9% in the coming years.
PM Fiber is the most significant component in the fiber optics that is helpful in saving the polarization in essential applications. Contrast to ordinary, the PV fiber has two well-defined polarization modes that traverse through the length, which includes different phase velocities. Quantum key distribution, fiber optic sensing, and interferometry are few prominent application areas of the polarization-maintaining fiber market.
PM fiber is a single-mode type of optical fiber that can propagate only one polarization of light compared to others in the same category. Various external modulators require the polarized light as an input to have improved efficiency. Linear polarization-maintaining fiber and circular polarization-maintaining fiber are two different types of the PM fiber available in the market. The stress rods in the fiber allow the transmission of only a single polarized light. Panda PM Fiber, Elliptical-clad PM Fiber, and Bow-Tie type PM Fiber are the most common varieties found in various applications around the world.
The increasing demand for PM fiber in the telecommunications sector is the primary factor driving the growth of the global PM Fiber market. They are also among the most preferred options for the shorter-distance transmissions. The use of the polarization plane in transmission lines of optical sensors and coupling for optical-electrical integrated circuits is also increasing the demand for this variety of fiber. Lithium niobate modulators, Raman amplifiers, and other polarization-sensitive systems require PM fiber to keep the polarization of input light and maintain cross-coupling, which in turn, supplements to the global market demand for the PM fibers.
On the other hand, the high costs associated with the introduction and maintenance of these fibers is expected to hamper the worldwide demand. This factor also affects the use of these in long-distance transmissions. Additionally, these PM fibers have more attenuation than other single-mode fibers, which is also anticipated to restrict the rapid expansion of the global PM fiber market in the years ahead.
However, the increasing investments from the leading telecom companies coupled with the strict government regulations to improve the quality of services are predicted to create lucrative opportunities for the global PM fiber market in the future. Moreover, the growing applications of these in different types of optical sensing systems will also fuel the market demand in the coming years.
