The Diode Pumped Solid State Lasers (DPSSL) Market has found considerable growth prospects in the last few years due to the developing laser technology and their multiple uses. Solid state lasers use semiconductors diodes for end pumping of the solid-state laser materials including the crystals or glasses leading to compact lasers. Their commercial acceptance is due to parameters such as high optical power, good beam quality and high reliability for potential uses in industry, medicine, military and in scientific research.

In the industrial sector, DPSSLs are employed for material processing purpose such as cutting, welding as well as marking. This means that subatomic lasers have their beams well-focused and are very powerful good for use in tasks that demands focus and speeds in particular. Some of the medical uses are laser surgery, dermatology procedures, and therapeutic treatments that require fine and controlled DPSSLs. Furthermore, DPSSLs have applications in defence/security include target pointing/identification, range finding, and DEWs due to their maturity and reliability.

COVID-19 Impact: Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic due to Supply Chain Disruptions

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering; with the diode pumped solid state lasers market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The Covid-19 outbreak affected global supply systems, this implied some of the essential ingredients required for DPSSL fabrication were delayed. This led to production delays and reduced supply which affected the market’s availability and delivery schedule. Several industries that largely depend on DPSSLs including the automobile and aviation industries lost market significantly because of the COVID positive impacts and shutdowns. This in turn later resulted in a short term reduction in DPSSL sales particularly for those operating in these industries.

The automotive and aerospace industries which are among the sectors that require a large number of DPSSLs were among the affected sectors during the COVID-19 outbreak especially due to contraction of markets and restrictions to movements. This consequently resulted into DMSSL’s reduced sales in these sectors for some time. The market is anticipated to boost the diode pumped solid state lasers market growth following the pandemic.
