Solid State Lasers: Outlook for the FutureProduct Type: Market Research ReportPublished by: BCC Research Published: May 1999 Product Code: R2-980 Description Since the advent of lasers in the early sixties, lasers have opened a new era in the exploitation of the phenomena of the interaction of light with matter. This report focuses on the current market status of solid-state lasers, their advantages and shortcuts, applications and opportunities, state of the art technologies and goals for the future. Major players in the field, both from the side of the crystal growers and laser producers are also covered. It also discusses challenges that are seeking solutions and getting special attention in order to identify the market needs and potential.
