Laser Technologies, Components & Applications Market – Global Forecast & Analysis (2012–2017) By Types & Applications

Additional Information

Scope of the report

The Laser Technologies Market research report categorizes the global laser market on the basis of them being used in different products and exhaustive applications that includes industrial and consumer applications, and geographical analysis; forecasting revenue, market modeling, and evaluating trends in the market.

On the basis of product type

The laser type market is segmented into six categories; namely: CO2 lasers, fiber lasers, solid-state lasers, diode lasers, dye lasers, and excimer lasers. The disc laser offers some unique properties that are particularly interesting for certain c-Si (Crime scene investigation) applications. As compared to a rod, a disc laser offers significantly higher beam quality, i.e. much higher average power of best beam quality.

Compared to bulk lasers, fiber lasers feature higher wall-plug efficiency, rugged and compact design, and nearly maintenance-free operation. Fiber lasers are appropriate for generating high average powers with good beam quality. On the other hand, due to nonlinearities, there is a lower potential for high pulse energies and peak powers.

On the basis of application

The application market is segmented into industrial applications, medical applications, military, and commercial applications. The industrial applications are further classified into marking & engraving, cutting & welding, semiconductor & micro processing and automotive industry. The other applications include instrumentation & sensors, pumps, medical, excimer lithography, science and defence, communications and consumer electronics.The market trends and future projections for these applications are discussed comprehensively. Communication and industrial applications like material processing give the maximum contribution to the laser industry. Among these, cutting & welding form a base for the majority of the laser applications.
