Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Metamaterials Technologies Market for Communication & Radar, Imaging, Solar, Acoustic Devices and Other Applications - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2014 - 2020" report to their offering.
In terms of revenue, radio & microwave frequency electromagnetic metamaterials segment accounted for approximately 50% share of the global metamaterials technologies market in 2013. The segment is expected to expand at a relatively rapid pace, due to the potential usage of these metamaterials in communication & radar, navigation and spectroscopy applications. Terahertz metamaterials interact at terahertz frequencies and are used in medical diagnostics or security screening applications. Photonic metamaterials are widely used metamaterials that are designed to interact at visible wavelengths. These are used in applications such as beam steerers and microwave couplers. Acoustic metamaterials are artificial structures with acoustic properties.
Metamaterials can be potentially used in telecommunication, aviation, defense and industrial sectors. Key application areas include communication & radar, imaging (medical & industrial), solar, acoustic devices, seismic protection and microwave cloaking devices. In terms of revenue, communication & radar was the largest and fastest growing segment of the global metamaterials technologies market, accounting for over 60% share in 2013.
