Laser is since the 20th century, after atomic energy, computer, semiconductor, mankind's another major invention, known as "the fastest knife", "the most accurate ruler", "the brightest light" and "strange laser".

       Laser technology as the world within the scope of one of the most advanced manufacturing technology, now has been widely used in industrial production, communications, information processing, medical hairdressing, 3 d sensing, military, culture, education and scientific research, etc., becomes the multitudinous investment institutions in the eyes of a nation, a lot of money, personnel, organization started running into the field. It can be said that the laser industry is becoming more and more "popular" from a very "niche" markeFrom the perspective of chip, the development prospect of China's laser industry has always been that high-power semiconductor laser chip is the core component of the laser industry. Developed countries in order to occupy the world in the global competition environment technology commanding heights, are tightening of semiconductor laser industry development plan, such as America's "semiconductor laser fusion scheme", Germany "semiconductor laser action plan 2001", "abil plan" in the UK and Japan "the semiconductor laser research five years plan", etc., foreign represented by America, Germany, Japan for the development of national semiconductor laser industry rapid development, its main large manufacturing industries, such as automobiles, electronics, machinery, aviation, steel and other industries in the basic completed by semiconductor laser processing technology to the traditional process of renewal.

       With the continuous improvement of domestic economic situation, China's laser industry has also achieved rapid development. The semiconductor laser industry has taken shape in the past 50 years, mainly involving industry, medical treatment, military affairs and culture. In recent years, the development of laser industry has been intensified in China. Under the leadership of the government and the cooperation of laser enterprises, all regions have devoted themselves to scientific research, technology upgrading, market development and laser industrial park construction. Qianzhan industry research institute predicts that by 2023, China's semiconductor laser industry market size will be close to 30 billion yuan.

       Where will the laser industry go in the future?

       There is no doubt that the laser technology of the future will develop towards higher power, better beam quality, shorter wavelength and faster frequency. , for example, as required by the energy density of the laser equipment downstream is increasing day by day, device manufacturers need to continuously improve performance of core components, such as high power semiconductor laser chip and gain fiber), the increase of fiber laser power also needs to be combined beams and power synthesis of advanced laser modulation technology, it will bring high power laser chip makers new requirements and challenges.

       From the application point of view, now in addition to rapid growth in the field of industrial processing, laser also penetrated more emerging applications, such as laser cleaning, 3 d printing market, laser radar, laser medical hairdressing, 3 d sensing, laser display, laser light, etc., these emerging application will greatly promote the rapid development of laser industry, especially in the automotive electronics and consumer electronics field driving effect of laser is more exciting, trillions of output is not a mirage.

        Opportunities with competition, how to seize the market opportunity?

       Although the prospects are very promising and attractive, we should also be aware that each emerging application brings new requirements and challenges to the laser industry, especially to the laser chip manufacturers, which requires us to make adequate technical and industrial preparations.
