laser technology top the list in optoelectronics

Promote advances in medical technology, improve people's health medical laser technology currently in ophthalmology, surgery, internal medicine, gynecology, ENT, cardiology, dermatology and other fields are widely used, laser medical equipment has entered the hospital above the county level, which of medical and technological progress and improving people's health plays an important role. Accelerate the modernization of national defense technology laser technology has been used in the military distance, direction, guidance, communications and tactical weapons, weapons and equipment to improve performance, increase the hit rate and reliability play an important role, and there is a certain number of products exported. Development of laser industry abroad, according to "Laser Collection" 1997 report, the world laser market can be divided into three regions: the United States (including North America) 55%, 22% Europe, Japan and the Pacific region accounted for 23%. Japanese market in the world of laser technology top the list in optoelectronics, the United States ranked second; in medical laser and laser detection is the United States top the list; in laser materials processing equipment is Germany top the list. Therefore, we chose the United States, Japan, Germany three countries to present their development of laser industry, laser market will reflect the basic situation of the world and its development trend. The expected use time of laser pointer can be really long.
Development of the U.S. laser industry has yet to see the full description American Laser - Optoelectronics Industry Development of the complete data are only based on the literature reviewed. 1994 U.S. Optoelectronics Industry Development Association, the 1993 World Laser - Optoelectronics market were Statistics, with a total of 750 billion U.S. dollars; U.S. Optoelectronics Industry Development Association to monitor, optical storage, optical communications and optoelectronic technology industry known as a hard copy, and that this area is now Japan's dominant position in the $ 75 billion value of about 50% in Japan, the United States should be aware that the current development of optoelectronic technology industry, the United States in this area can account for a large share. The following describes the United States of laser processing and laser medical aspects of the development. According to the 1996 "Industrial Laser Review" magazine in 1995, worldwide sales of laser processing system about $ 1.1 billion, the U.S. accounted for 31%, Europe 32% Japan 35%, other 2%.
