The global polarizing beamsplitters (PBS) market size was USD 224.9 million in 2023 and is projected to touch USD 500.9 million by 2032, at a CAGR of 9.3% during the forecast period.

Polarizing beamsplitters (PBS) are designed to spilt the light into s-polarized and transmits p-polarized reflection. They are a type of specialty mirrors. They can be used in splitting of unpolarized light at a 50/50 ratio. They are designed to split the light by the process of polarization rather than through intensity or wavelength. They are designed for 0-degree or 45-degree angle of incidence and separation of beams depending upon the configuration. They differently split the orthogonally polarized beams that are separated by an angle or displaced.    

Polarized beamsplitters in the configurations of a range of objects such as cubes and plates. They have many applications such as laser, photo tonics, and semiconductor instrumentation. They can be used to optimize the performance when it is used with visible, ultraviolet, and infrared wavelengths. They are also ideal for applications that require durability, simple mounting or system integration. They are used in many industries such as automotive, semiconductor, space and defense, and electronics industries.   

COVID-19 Impact: Halt on Several Industries to Hinder Market Growth  

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the polarizing beamsplitters (PBS) market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The outbreak of COVID-19 is already being felt globally, and the global polarizing beamsplitters market is noticeably impacted. In 2020, COVID-19 had a negative impact on the market. Several countries went into lockdown. The application of such beamsplitters comes from industries such as automotive, semiconductor, electronics, space and defense, and other industries. With the sudden pandemic, the all of the industries were forced to shut down due to labor deficiency, supply chain concerns, and financial problems. Therefore, the demand for polarized beamsplitters was also affected and the market experienced a shortfall in the demand.     

LATEST TRENDS

"Thin-Film Polarizing Beam Splitters to Push Market Growth"

The trend of thin-film polarizing beam splitters is a new type of beam splitter that is based on the effects of frustrated total internal reflection and light interference. They are significantly better in terms of performance than traditional PBSs. They are having a wide angle and non-absorbing and has wide extinction ratios in transmitted and reflected beams. They are designed for visible and infrared spectral regions. They are used to design broadband dichronic mirrors. The advantage they possess is that they can be made with larger dimensions making them useful to be operated on high-power devices such as laser pulses at a very high power levels. Such advantages are expected to pose as an opportunity in the forecast period.
