Research and Markets Adds Report: Laser Technology Market by Type, Application, and Geography - Trends and Forecast 2013-2020 [Health & Beauty Close - Up]


(Health & Beauty Close - Up Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Laser Technology Market by Type, Application, and Geography - Trends and Forecast 2013-2020" report to its offerings.



In a release, Research and Markets noted that report highlights include: This laser technology market report is segmented on the basis of different laser types, laser processing techniques, and laser applications. Also, it further provides a detailed segmentation analysis of the market based on various geographies. It also briefly explains the market drivers, challenges, opportunities, and trends in the laser technology market and forecasts the market till 2020. The different types of lasers can be divided on basis of the matter of state of the active medium which includes: solid, liquid, or gas; the characteristics of the radiation emitted from the laser; and the number of energy levels which participate in the lasing process.

Laser technology is considered to be the core enabling technology for many applications. There are different kinds of lasers used in various applications. Lasers are offered in various formats with different properties depending on a broad range of technologies, thereby making them heterogeneous. Also, applications vary from systems for manufacturing (for example, welding and marking); lasers for surgery; lasers in defense (for example, ranging and weaponry); and lasers used in scientific research and development. Communication and industrial applications, such as material processing, contribute the maximum to the laser industry. Among these, cutting and welding form a base for the major chunk of the laser applications.


Increased telephone usage, electronic transmission, relaying of television signals, and the requirement for communication in space will be the key drivers for the further growth of lasers in the communication sector, which is the major contributor for the laser industry. The most prospective market for laser in new applications is medical and consumer electronics. Lasers are being used in skin treatments, such as removing wrinkles, sunspots, tattoos or birthmarks.
