An optical frequency comb is a mode-locked laser that is frequency and phase locked. This optical frequency comb laser has strictly equal frequency intervals in the frequency domain, similar to the teeth of a comb. Optical frequency comb is another major breakthrough in the field of laser technology after the advent of ultra-short pulse laser. With the rapid development of optical communication technology, optical frequency comb has attracted more and more scholars' attention due to its wide application in optical arbitrary waveform generation, multi-wavelength ultrashort pulse generation and dense wavelength division multiplexing.

The optical frequency comb market is experiencing accelerated growth, primarily driven by the continuous evolution of optical communication technologies and the increasing demand for precision measurement in scientific research. Although current applications are still concentrated in research domains, the technology has already been widely adopted in areas such as optical clocks, laser ranging, high-precision spectroscopy, astronomy, quantum control, and beyond. Among the available product types, femtosecond-based mode-locked laser combs continue to dominate, reflecting their technical maturity. Additionally, integrated microcavity comb technologies have made significant progress, opening pathways toward applications in lidar, industrial metrology, and photonic integration. The future outlook for optical frequency combs is highly promising. With ongoing advancements in miniaturization, power efficiency, and system integration, the applicability of the technology in practical and commercial scenarios is expected to increase significantly. The market is likely to witness a shift from lab-based research tools to deployable industrial and commercial systems. In the coming years, adoption is expected to grow steadily in sectors such as precision manufacturing, communication systems, photonic chips, and biomedical imaging—ushering in a broader era of real-world implementation. The expansion of the optical frequency comb market is powered by several key drivers: growing demand from high-end scientific research, rapid technological innovation, increased public and private R&D funding, and the exploration of novel application areas. Pioneering companies like Japan’s XTIA have already demonstrated the potential for industrial deployment, setting an example for commercial viability. However, there are still notable challenges—high production costs, complex system integration, steep technical learning curves, underdeveloped standardization frameworks, and a lack of user education outside the research community—all of which may temporarily constrain broader commercial adoption.
