About Semiconductor Lasers
Semiconductor lasers use semiconductor gain medium, where optical gain is achieved by injecting current at an interband transition with high carrier density in the conduction band. They are compact in size and have low maintenance cost. The material often used in the semiconductor laser is gallium arsenide, and thus it is also known as a gallium arsenide laser. Semiconductor lasers are also used in new manufacturing processes such as micromachining. Lasers reduce the costs of end products by improving throughput and yield. The industrial segment spans a range of laser applications such as welding, cladding, metal cutting, and heat treating in segments ranging from automotive, gas, and appliance manufacturing to high-precision microelectronics fabrication and micro structuring in machine tool production.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global semiconductor laser market to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% during the period 2016-2020.
