Edge-Emitting Lasers Market Size:

The Edge-emitting lasers market is expected to grow from US$2.458 billion in 2025 to US$3.758 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 8.86%.

Edge-Emitting Lasers Market Trends:

Edge-emitting lasers are a type of semiconductor laser where the laser light propagates parallel to the wafer surface of the semiconductor chip and is reflected or coupled out at a cleaved edge. There is a wide variety of laser types, including diode lasers, fiber lasers, diode-pumped solid-state lasers (DPSSLs), CO2 lasers, and excimer lasers. Edge-emitting lasers can be used as direct lasers or coupled with optical fibers or crystals to make fiber lasers or DPSSLs. Due to this edge-emitting lasers have several applications in different industries such as optical communication, material processing, and display.

The optical communication segment has a significant market share owing to increasing information traffic due to the Internet, electronic commerce, computer networks, multimedia, voice, data, and video, the need for a transmission medium with the bandwidth capabilities for handling such vast amounts of information is paramount. There are some emerging applications as well such as sensing, medical, and lighting. However, the market is shrinking in printing and optical storage applications. The edge-emitting laser market is expected to grow, but it also represents a challenging market due to the declining market of some of its applications.
