  • Since the laser was invented, laser is widely demanded and applied in various fields. With the in creasement of the lasers' output power, the heavy weight and huge volume has become one of the restrictions for the development of high-power laser system. Because of the requirement for high power output, the complicated structure and low energy conversion efficiency, it is difficult for high-power laser systems to realize the miniaturization and lightweight. Features of high-power laser system and the restrictions in miniaturization and lightweight are introduced in this paper. On the basis of this, approaches such as application of miniaturization and lightweight technology for common equipment, new high-power laser technologies, methods to improve energy conversion efficiency and heat radiation efficiency which can match the characteristics of the high-power laser system as well as their use in high-power laser systems are reviewed. According to the characteristics and development situation of high-power laser system, these technologies have great potential in reducing the weight and volume efficiently.
