の 2021, the global next-generation optical fiber market (including multicore and hollow core fiber) was dominated by the hollow core fiber segment based on product type. This segment experienced significant growth and became the largest segment due to increasing demand from various industries such as telecommunications, 医療機器, aerospace and defense, and information technology. The hollow core fiber offers higher efficiency in light transmission compared to traditional solid core fibers, leading to lower losses and greater transmission distances. It also has the advantage of transmitting light in a broader range of wavelengths, making it suitable for applications that require the simultaneous transmission of multiple wavelengths, like high-power laser delivery. さらに, hollow core fiber provides lower latency, making it ideal for applications that require fast and accurate data transmission, including data center interconnects and high-frequency trading. Its ability to transmit light through gases rather than solids makes it attractive for use in environments where traditional fibers would be impractical, such as high-temperature environments or outer space.

The glass segment dominated the next-generation optical fiber market based on material type. Glass is preferred for manufacturing multicore optical fiber because it offers high transparency, low attenuation, and excellent mechanical stability. Precise control over the geometry and refractive index of cores and cladding is essential for multicore fiber, and glass can be engineered to meet these requirements. Glass fibers enable high levels of light transmission over long distances, which is crucial for telecommunications and data center interconnects. Glass’s mechanical stability ensures the long-term reliability of multicore optical fiber, allowing it to withstand various environmental conditions and physical stresses.

The telecommunications segment was the largest segment in the global next-generation optical fiber market based on end users. This dominance was driven by the increasing demand for high-speed telecommunication technologies such as 5G, fueled by the growing adoption of smart electronic devices. Next-generation optical fibers, including multicore and hollow core fiber, are extensively used for high-speed and large-capacity data transmission, sensing, and detection. Multicore optical fibers offer a more efficient and cost-effective way to increase network capacity compared to traditional single-core fibers. They enable parallel transmission of multiple signals within a single fiber, resulting in increased data transfer rates, reduced latency, and signal interference. Multicore fibers also facilitate the development of new network architectures, such as space-division multiplexing networks, and hold potential applications in 5G networks, optical interconnects for data centers, and quantum communication networks.

North America dominated the next-generation optical fiber market due to the widespread adoption of advanced telecommunication technologies, smart consumer electronic devices, and strong presence of industry players. The region’s developed and growing economies, including the U.S., カナダ, そしてメキシコ, contribute to the rapid growth of end-use industries such as telecommunications, 情報技術, 健康管理, and aerospace and defense.
