Solid-State Laser Market Size
The global solid-state laser market was valued at USD 3.9 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9% from 2025 to 2034.
The solid-state laser market is driven by developments in laser technology such as performance improvement, efficiency, and reduced size. Some of the new applications in which solid-state lasers are used are in telecommunications, health care, and manufacturing, due to technical breakthroughs that have produced smaller, more compact, and stronger lasers. The cost-effectiveness decline combined with the many innovations of these new lasers have played a role in market expansion.
For instance, in April 2024, researchers invented a 60-milliwatt solid-state DUV laser using LBO crystals with a wavelength of 193 nm, which has achieved new efficiency records. Normally, high-power 193 nanometer (nm) lasers are important in lithography and are essential components for accurate modeling systems. However, the coherence limits of more common ArF-Empire lasers limit its usefulness for high-resolution modeling applications such as interference lithography.
Solid-state lasers are used for various industrial applications such as material processing, cutting, welding and engraving. Industries such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, and demand for precision-based manufacturing processes are growing and the solid-state laser market is booming. The same complexity of the final product requires precise speed, less waste and processing that traditional tools cannot provide. Due to changes in manufacturing processes, as well as an increase in quality demand, solid-state lasers are adopted in manufacturing systems, further strengthening this market.
Solid-State Laser Market Trends
With the increase in spatial mapping, autonomous vehicles and environmental monitoring, the wide-ranging use of lidar, that is driven by solid-state lasers, can be regarded as a rapidly growing market trend. Since precision distance measurement and 3D imaging are required for short pulse and high-intensity properties, a solid-state laser is needed. The growing competition for fully autonomous vehicles in the automotive sector has led to an increase in demand for compact and cost-effective solid-state lasers, as magnetic rotation devices have been an essential element since their invention. But even in the automotive industry, lidar-based hardware is useful for agriculture, urban planning, and disaster management, thus showing a broader aspect of the technology.
Solid-state lasers are becoming a necessity in new generation manufacturing processes, including 3D printing and micromachining. The use of metals, ceramics and polymers is easy to handle, and many industries, including aerospace and medical devices manufacturers, use these materials. With companies re-introducing modern processes such as intelligent factories and industry 4.0, investment and demand for compact, cost-effective lasers will increase, as the integration of laser technology into automated production lines will improve quality control and productivity. In the Asia-Pacific region, industrialization is happening rapidly, this trend is becoming very obvious.
The demand for solid-state lasers is high for directed energy weapons and laser communication systems. As a result, many aerospace and defense companies seek to secure the future by investing in next-generation laser technology and solid-state lasers, which are reliable under harsh environmental conditions and excellent candidates for the job. In addition, the interest of the aerospace industry in laser-based satellite communications is stimulating further innovations in solid-state laser technology.
Solid-State Laser Market Analysis
However, although they are more efficient, the cost of integrating solid-state lasers poses a challenge to small and medium-sized enterprises, as prices vary worldwide. The complexity of integrating these lasers into existing systems, along with the specialized knowledge and maintenance required, may deter some industries from adopting this technology. High investment in research and development and training limits the expansion of the industry in markets with high prices.
Based on material, the solid-state laser market is divided into Nd:YAG Laser (Neodymium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet), Er:YAG Laser (Erbium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet), Alexandrite Laser, Ti:Sapphire Laser (Titanium-doped Sapphire), others. The Nd:YAG Laser (Neodymium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) segment dominated the global market with a share of 28.2% in 2024.
Based on technology, the solid-state laser market is divided into Diode Pumped Solid-state Laser (DPSSL), fiber laser, disk laser, thin slab laser, Optically Pumped Semiconductor Laser (OPSL), others. The Diode Pumped Solid-state Laser (DPSSL) segment is expected to register a revenue of USD 2.2 billion by 2034 during the forecast period and reach.
U.S. dominated the North America solid-state laser market in 2024, accounting for a share of 84.1%.
The United States market share has experienced considerable growth due to its presence in agriculture, medicine and defense. It is widely used in laser-interfaced missiles, lidar systems installed in self-driving cars, and non-invasive surgeries. There is also a vast R&D network in the country that is involved in Solid-state laser projects which also get financial support from the government. All these factors support innovation in solid-state lasers.
Japan solid-state laser industry benefits from its leadership in advanced manufacturing and electronics. The need for high precision in quality controls in Japan has increased the usage of solid-state lasers in micromachining, semiconductor production and industrial robots. Another sector where Japan utilizes these lasers is medicine and medicine engineering, specifically for dermatology and ophthalmology for the increasingly aging population. Collaborative research efforts and government support for innovation further strengthen Japan’s position on the global competitive market.
China's solid-state laser market is growing due to its growing manufacturing industry, as well as to the laser-use industry. The automotive and electronic industries are two of the current applications using solid-state lasers. China also invests in defence technologies that cross the health sector. This investment generates a demand for high-performance laser systems. In addition, the government also provides ample subsidies in the form of subsidies to encourage further growth of this industry.
In South Korea the solid-state laser industry growth is due to its improved technical structure and ongoing innovative projects. Solid-state lasers are firmly integrated into the semiconductor manufacturing and inspection processes. The use of solid-state lasers also has begun to penetrate medical technologies such as cosmetic surgical procedures. Governments are focusing on R&D and other growth sectors such as cars, and the region is beginning to use solid-state laser technology.
