The laser industry in the future-Vicky

The laser is a major invention of human beings since the 20th century, after atomic energy, computers, and semiconductors. It calls “the fastest knife”, “the most accurate ruler”, “the brightest light” and “the fantastic laser”.

As one of the most advanced manufacturing and processing technologies in the world. Laser technology widely used in industrial production, communication, information processing. medical beauty. 3D sensing. Military, cultural education and scientific research. A lot of money, talents, and institutions began to run into the field. It can be said that the laser industry is becoming more and more “popular” from a very “niche” market.

High-power semiconductor laser chips have always the core components in laser industry. And laser industry based on semiconductor laser chips has developed rapidly around the world. In order to occupy the world’s technological commanding heights in a global competitive environment. Developed countries stepped up their implementation of semiconductor laser industry development plans. Such as the US Semiconductor Laser Fusion Program. The German Semiconductor Laser 2001 Action Plan, the UK’s Avil Plan, Japan’s Semiconductor Laser Research Five-Year Plan, etc., the development of the national semiconductor laser industry represented by the United States. Germany and Japan is rapidly developing, and its major large-scale manufacturing industries, such as automotive, electronics, machinery, aviation, steel industry. The replacement of traditional processes with semiconductor laser processing has been basically completed.

It’s no doubt that laser technologies in the future will move toward higher power, better beam quality, shorter wavelengths, and faster frequencies. For example, as downstream laser devices increasingly require energy density, manufacturers need to continuously improve core component performance (such as high-power semiconductor laser chips and gain fibers), and the power of fiber lasers needs advanced integration. In addition, laser modulation technologies such as power synthesis, which will bring new requirements and challenges to high-power laser chip manufacturers.
