在其13年的短暂生涯中,激光器已在医疗,通讯和精密测量等领域中发展成为一种成熟的工具。最近的市场研究反映了民用激光器的光明前景,预计今后十年内将有约475%的大幅度增长。据纽约市技术市场研究组织弗罗斯特和沙利文公司发表的研究报告说,估计到1983年市场销售额将从现在的9400万美元发展到4440万美元。报告说“激光发明的速率已经下降到接近于零”。它指出今后的增长将取决于在强调简单化和可靠性的同时出现的新应用。
In its 13 years of short career, lasers have developed into a mature tool in the fields of medical care, communications and precision measurement. Recent market research reflects the bright prospects of civilian lasers and it is expected that there will be a substantial increase of approximately 475% over the next decade. According to a study published by Frost & Sullivan, a technology market research organization in New York City, it is estimated that by 1983, sales will grow from the current $94 million to $44.4 million. The report said that “the speed of lasers has dropped to near zero.” It points out that future growth will depend on new applications that appear while emphasizing simplification and reliability.
