Mid-infrared lasers emit laser like beams and have wavelength ranging from 3 ?m to 8 ?m. These lasers may either contain some shorter-wavelength laser or a mid-infrared (mid-IR) combined with means required for nonlinear frequency conversion.
Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/18/2017 -- Mid-infrared lasers emit laser like beams and have wavelength ranging from 3 ?m to 8 ?m. These lasers may either contain some shorter-wavelength laser or a mid-infrared (mid-IR) combined with means required for nonlinear frequency conversion. Mid-infrared lasers are in great demand for variety of applications including polymer and plastic processing, pumping optical parametric oscillators (OPOs), free space communications, remote sensing, laser scalpel, non-invasive medical diagnosis, and spectroscopy. Various defense related applications on mid-infrared lasers are emerging such as covert communications systems, eyesafe seekers for smart munitions, stand-off detection of explosion hazards, and countermeasures. Mid-infrared laser market is relatively small as compared to the total laser market, but it is showing fastest growth in demand among all types of lasers.

Technological innovations in mid-infrared lasers segment is the major driving factor for mid-infrared lasers market. Mid-infrared laser segment has many new emerging applications. However, many mid-infrared lasers, sensors and imagers require cryogenic cooling for operation. This increases their weight, cost and size. Thus, factors such as high initial and maintenance costs are hindering the adoption of the mid-infrared lasers. Furthermore, production of fiber cable which is able to transport light at wavelength more than 2 µm is expensive. Thus, fiber availability for mid-infrared lasers is quite rare and it is one of the major challenges for the vendors in this market. A lot of research and development is being carried out in order to improve the quality of mid-infrared lasers greatly. Along with it, development of mid-infrared devices which are able to operate at room temperature and do not require a dedicated cooling unit holds immense market opportunity for the players operating in this market
