日本光产业技术振兴协会发表了1987年度对日本光产业生产规模的预测。结果表明,预计产值达12333亿日元,比1986年度(1860亿日元)增长18%。尽管上升率趋缓,但考虑到整个制造业因日元升值造成的不景气,仍可说是持续高增长。其中激光、光纤(含光缆)之类的光部件为3717亿日元(占30%);光盘、光输入输出装置之类的光机械、光装置为7072 Japan Photonics Industry Technology Promotion Association released the 1987 forecast of the scale of production of Japan’s photonics industry. The result shows that the estimated output value amounts to 1,233.3 billion yen, an increase of 18% over 1986 (186 billion yen). Despite the slowdown, the continued sluggishness of the manufacturing sector as a whole as a result of the appreciation of the yen continues to show sustained high growth. Of these, 371.7 billion yen (30%) were optical components such as lasers and optical fibers (including optical fiber cables); optical machines such as optical disks and optical input / output devices and 7072
