The study involved four major activities in estimating the current size of the silicon photonics market—exhaustive secondary research collected information on the market and its peer and parent markets. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the total market size. After that, market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
Various secondary sources have been referred to in the secondary research process for identifying and collecting information important for this study. These secondary sources include silicon photonics technology journals and magazines, annual reports, press releases, investor presentations of companies, white papers, certified publications and articles from recognized authors, and directories and databases such as Factiva, Hoovers, and OneSource.
Primary Research
Various primary sources from both supply and demand sides have been interviewed in the primary research process to obtain qualitative and quantitative information important for this report. The primary sources from the supply side included industry experts such as CEOs, VPs, marketing directors, technology and innovation directors, and related executives from key companies and organizations operating in the silicon photonics market. After complete market engineering (including calculations regarding market statistics, market breakdown, market size estimations, market forecasting, and data triangulation), extensive primary research was conducted to gather information as well as to verify and validate the critical numbers arrived at.
Note: Other designations include sales, marketing, and product managers. Tier 1 = USD 1 billion, Tier 2 = USD 0.5–1.0 billion, and Tier 3 = USD 0.5 billion.

Data Triangulation
After arriving at the overall market size from the estimation process explained above, the global market has been split into several segments and subsegments. Market breakdown and data triangulation procedures have been employed wherever applicable to complete the overall market engineering process and arrive at exact statistics for all segments and subsegments. The data has been triangulated by studying various factors and trends identified from both the demand and supply sides.
Market Definition
Silicon photonics is a technique that employs semiconductor-grade silicon to integrate photonic circuits and electronic components on a single microchip. This method minimizes system power consumption while increasing transmission bandwidth by employing silicon as an optical medium. Instead of electrical impulses, the technology transfers data using optical beams, which may send enormous amounts of data at a faster rate than electrical signals.
