Executive Summary

Lasers produce high-intensity light beams that are coherent, monochromatic and highly collimated. Laser beams are extremely pure in comparison to other sources of light, with all of their photons (energy) having a fixed phase relationship with respect to each other. Ultrafast lasers are defined by time durations ranging from 1 picosecond to 100 femtoseconds. Lasers have evolved over time to provide optical pulses arranged for a specific operation at high bit rates.

Ultrafast or ultrashort pulse lasers have become essential manufacturing tools across industries, such as automotive, medical device and consumer electronics, due to advantages such as enhanced dimensional accuracy, tighter tolerances and elimination of post-processing steps. Industries have moved from laser cut technology to ultrafast laser technology for machining accuracy, thereby enabling early time to the market. Although these lasers’ equipment (typically in the form of oscillators and amplifiers) tend to have high initial costs, the improvement in process precision reduces the overall time and operating cost for the production line, which is the primary reason for the high adoption of this equipment in material processing applications.

This report classifies ultrafast lasers based on their usage and practical applications. Fiber lasers are widely used in materials processing, telecommunications, spectroscopy, healthcare, and directed energy weapons operations. These lasers have largely replaced other traditional ultrafast lasers in recent years due to features such as high optical quality, high output power and high vibration reliability. Ultrafast lasers have not only enabled automobile manufacturers to meet various regulations but have also helped them achieve small-sized, high-precision products made out of diverse materials, including ceramic, glass, etc.

Factors that support the growth of ultrafast lasers include their unmatched high-range intensity due to their low divergence angles as well as minimal energy loss during use. Although there are both large and small competitors in various regions, there are currently no substitutions for ultrafast lasers, and this is expected to remain the case in the near future.
