Global Terahertz and Infrared Spectroscopy Market: Overview

Terahertz spectroscopy aids the detection and control of matters that have electromagnetic fields ranging in frequency between a few hundred gigahertz and multiple terahertz. In the system that pertains to many problems related to interacting microscopic particles, there are multiple relevant states where energy difference matches the energy of a Terahertz photon, thus making Terahertz spectroscopy an efficient method to resolve and control the individual transition between multiple many-body states. The vast application of THz spectroscopy in understanding the vibrational modes of biomolecules with extremely low frequency has made it one of the most powerful tools to research life-science-related organic molecules.

Infrared spectroscopy refers to technology that deals with light that has a longer wavelength and a lower frequency than visible light or the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The technology is used to interact with molecules with the help of infrared light. The IR spectrometer plots a graph with the help of absorbed infrared light and the graph is then studied by analyzing it in the following three ways: measuring reflection, emission, or absorption. Infrared spectroscopy has vast applications in the field of food sciences, pharmaceutical, petroleum, and forestry as it is one of the most sought-after analytical tools. These properties have created a huge demand in the global terahertz and infrared spectroscopy market in the last few years.

Global Terahertz and Infrared Spectroscopy Market: Growth Drivers

Rising food safety concerns and growing demand in the semiconductor industry to aid global market growth

THz spectroscopy is used extensively in the food sector as it helps in providing the qualitative and quantitative details of food samples like the presence of foreign bodies, moisture detection, and other inspection-related data. With the increasing demand for safe food across the globe, food product manufacturers have started using terahertz spectrometers during the food analysis process thus aiding the growth in the global terahertz and infrared spectroscopy market. The growing concern for safe food is correlated to the rising awareness in consumer groups about food safety, and the presence of multiple options in the market thus propelling competition.

The global market growth is also expected to be driven by the increasing manufacturing of semiconductors that are used in electric circuits because of the ability of THz spectrometry to quantify while also detecting charge carriers. With technological advancements, some of THz spectrometers can rapidly isolate semiconductor packages without destruction within a few hours.

Terahertz and Infrared Spectroscopy Market: Restraints

High Cost of THz and IR spectrometers to restrain the global market growth

Terahertz and Infrared spectrometers used in the industrial application in the semiconductor industry are relatively higher which is expected to restrain the global market expansion. Even if bigger corporations can afford these technologies, it becomes difficult for small-scale semiconductor producers to buy new THz and IR spectrometers. The cost may vary depending on the application for the technology but generally given their advanced features, these spectrometers are quite expensive and the additional cost of their maintenance makes them out of reach of many potential users.

Terahertz and Infrared Spectroscopy Market: Opportunities

Rising demand in the healthcare sector may provide growth opportunities in the global market

One of the exponentially rising sectors in the healthcare industry which uses terahertz and infrared spectrometers for its research activities is anticipated to provide lucrative growth opportunities in the global terahertz and infrared spectroscopy market. There is a shift in preference for using THz spectrometry in biomedical analysis, which has recently taken a high jump owing to Covid-19. This is coupled with ongoing investigation to learn about the application of THz and IR spectrometers for protein characterization along with cancer detection and quality control in the pharmaceutical sector. The cancer detection segment has potential growth opportunities since THz spectroscopy is a non-invasive and non-ionizing technology and is harmless.

Global Terahertz and Infrared Spectroscopy Market: Challenges

Lack of affordability in emerging economies poses challenges to global market expansion

Given the high cost of new equipment used in Terahertz and Infrared spectroscopy along with their expensive maintenance, the adoption of these technologies may become difficult for potential consumers in emerging economies. There are insufficient manufacturers of IR and THz spectrometers in many regions, which propels domestic consumers to import these technologies thus reducing their cost-effectiveness and increasing hesitancy for their adoption. IR spectrometers do not last more than 5-7 years propelling the need to buy new equipment since the resale ones are not as effective as expected which may create challenges for global market expansion.
