Introduction:

Laser diodes are semiconductor sources of coherent monochromatic light which use stimulated emission to generate laser light. When current passes through a semiconductor material, electrons jump from a lower to a higher energy level. As they fall back down, photons of the same wavelength and phase are emitted. This amplification effect leads to the emission of laser light. Some key applications of laser diodes include optical storage, laser printing, barcode scanners, laser pointing devices, and others. Advancements in materials science have enabled the development of laser diodes that emit light across various wavelengths from ultraviolet to infrared. The global laser diode market has been growing steadily due to increasing demand from various industries such as consumer electronics, healthcare, industrial, etc.

Market Dynamics:

The global laser diode market is driven by factors such as growing demand for fiber optic communication systems, increasing use of laser diodes in various medical applications like surgery, new product launches, and growing consumer electronics industry.
