The electronic industry has witnessed high growth in the last two decades but it has reached its speed limit. The speed of light is 10 times faster than the speed of electricity. The rising demand for fast speed has generated the need for photon based systems, thus driving the growth of the photonics market. Photonics finds application in different fields such as medical technology, production technology, lighting, optical components and defensephotonics. Although photonics-enabled technologies are growing rapidly, the shortage of skilled manpower is inhibiting the growth of this field.

The photonics market has a huge potential as it supports a large number of jobs. In Europe more than 5000 small and medium enterprises and research institutes require skilled manpower for the photonics market. Germany is the leading market after France and UK and it accounts for about 20% of the European photonics market.

Some of the key players of the photonics market are JDSU, Ciena, Alcatel-Lucent,...
