The Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 26.26% to reach US$3,830.323 million by 2024, from US$945.455 million in 2018. Vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) is the semiconductor-based laser diode which emits an efficient optical beam vertically from the topmost surface. The major factors driving the demand for VCSEL are increasing adoption of these lasers for various applications including data transfer, proximity sensing and for infrared illumination. North America and Europe held a significant market share owing to the rising expenditure on research and development activities and early adoption of technology. The Asia Pacific region will witness impressive growth over the forecast period.
