Laser Technology Market Overview


Laser systems are widely used in the automotive sectors for cutting airbag cloth and composite materials. Increasing the implementation of laser processing in material processing applications like cutting, welding, engraving, and others increases the growth of laser technology. On February 09, 2019, Corning Incorporated partnered with Altechna R&D and developed new laser glass processing technologies. The demand for laser processing technologies is growing mainly for ultra-strong, ultra-thin, and ultra-clean glass processing solutions.


The rise in demand for optical communication drives the market growth of laser technologies which consumes less power for data transmission. A new high-precision laser processing tool used for commercial availability was launched by Corning Incorporated on December 20, 2016. These tools are used for cutting and drilling strengthened and non-strengthened glass. It is also used for crystalline materials and processing micro materials like OLED, polyimide, wafers, ceramics, plastics, and others. In 2020, the laser technology market size is USD 11.7 billion and is expected to grow USD 32.3 Billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 9.50%.


COVID-19 Analysis:


The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely impacted all over the world. Most of the business sector is impacted negatively and reduces the demand for their products. Due to the lockdowns in various countries, the manufacturing sector is severely affected by supply chain disruptions, lack of labor, lack of raw materials, and many more which results in reducing the demand over the particular business.


Researchers across the globe are taking steps to develop laser sensors that can detect the virus at the earliest point of infection from nasal swabs or saliva within a few minutes. The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in October 2020 launched a cost-effective wireless sensor “SARS-CoV-2 RapidPlex” which enables the COVID-19 virus diagnosis through rapid analysis of blood or saliva within a few minutes. This wireless sensor transmits the information to the end user’s cell phone via Bluetooth. Apart, Quantlase Imaging Lab introduced an innovative rapid COVID-19 laser testing technology for testing and monitoring coronavirus in all industry verticals. This is a DPI technique that is cost-effective, user-friendly, and non-invasive.


Market Dynamics:


Drivers:
