Synopsis
The global market for Micro-channel Plate (MCP) was estimated to be worth US$ 255 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 587 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 12.8% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
A microchannel plate (MCP) is essentially a fast high-gain amplifier for electrons, having many parallel spatial channels for use in imaging applications. It is directly sensitive not only to input electrons, but also to other charged particles (e.g. ions or elementary particles) and to electromagnetic radiation with sufficiently short wavelength (high photon energy), i.e., from the ultraviolet to soft X-rays. The detection efficiency (quantum efficiency) generally depends on the type and energy of the particles or the photons. For obtaining sensitivity to visible or infrared light, one can use a photocathode in front of the MCP. MCPs are used in various photonic instruments, particularly in image intensifiers and image converters. Besides, they are also applied for the detection of X-rays in medical diagnosis or for industrial inspection. Other application areas are time-of-flight mass spectrometry, nuclear physics, other fundamental physics and electron microscopy.
Global core Micro-channel Plate (MCP) manufacturers include Hamamatsu Photonics, North Night Vision, PHOTONIS Technologies S.A.S.etc. The top 2 companies hold a share over 70%.Asia-Pacific is the largest market, with a share about 40%, followed by Europe and North America with the share about 30% and 27%.In terms of product, circular MCP is the largest segment, with a share over 70%. And in terms of application, the largest application is night vision devices, followed by experimental physics. Increasing research and development activities in the field of physics is a major factor driving growth of the market. Areas such as nuclear studies and beam fusion studies require micro channel plate. This requirement is expected to result in increasing demand for micro-channel plate over the forecast period. Moreover, micro-channel plate finds application in fields such as astrophysics and space, experimental & nuclear physics, electron and ion microscopy, spectrometry, and instance, micro-channel plate detector is used in night vision glasses and the demand for night vision devices is increasing, which subsequently drives the micro-channel plate (MCP) market growth.
