Where to Buy Mode-locked Fiber Lasers

Cycle supplies tailored laser systems with unique features and affordable prices:

The SOPRANO-15 is Cycle’s state-of-the art femtosecond fiber lasers, designed to fulfill tasks such as OPO/OPA pumping, semiconductor testing, and materials analysis and processing. The SOPRANO-15 operates at a center wavelength of 1550 nm or 775 nm and pulse duration below 350 fs, establishing benefits in both industrial and scientific environments in 24/7 operation.

The SOPRANO-15 mini is designed to carry out tasks such as multiphoton microscopy, spectroscopy, semiconductor testing, and materials analysis. In addition to its dependable 24/7 operation, the SOPRANO-15 mini operates at a center wavelength of 1550 nm and typical pulse duration below 130 fs, establishing benefits in both industrial and scientific environments.

At FYLA we develop ultrafast fiber lasers with pulse durations in the range of picosecond and femtosecond. Our lasers are used in a lot of applications, from microscopy (as two-photon microscopy, SHG, single molecule fluorescence, OCT) up to characterization of the semiconductors, providing a greater level of robustness, higher lifetimes, and a cost-effective solution.

The VALO Series of ultrafast fiber lasers are unique in their design offering amoungst the shortest femtosecond pulses and highest peak powers which can be obtained from a compact turn-key solution. Pulse durations of <50 fs are achieved using novel fiber laser based technology. The ultrashort pulse durations combined with computer controlled group velocity dispersion pre-compensation, allow users of the VALO lasers to achieve the highest peak power exactly where its needed, which makes the lasers ideal for use in multiphoton imaging, advanced spectroscopy and many other applications.

• <50 fs pulse duration
• up to 2 W output power
• very low noise
• integrated pre-compensation dispersion module

Among its portfolio, Thorlabs manufactures several mode-locked femtosecond fiber laser systems, including stand-alone systems at 2 µm and 1550 nm as well as an all-fiber mid-IR supercontinuum laser driven by a mode-locked pump laser. These systems compliment our family of ultrafast lasers, amplifiers and specialized optics, including chirped mirrors, low GDD mirrors/beamsplitters, and dispersion compensating fiber.

AdValue Photonics offers picosecond and femtosecond mode-locked fiber lasers emitting in the 2-μm spectral region:

• The AP-ML1 offers up to 10 kW peak power in <3-ps pulses with 20–40 MHz pulse repetition rate.
• The AP-ML2 generates 800-fs pulses with up to 10 μJ pulse energy and up to 500 kHz repetition rate.
• The AP-ML is a seed laser available with pulse durations between 350 fs and 950 fs. Repetition rates can be between 20 MHz and 50 MHz.

All those devices have a good output beam quality.

MPBC's high-power mode-locked femtosecond fiber lasers operate in the 920-nm, 1140-nm and 1190-nm spectral region – which is traditionally covered by ultrafast Ti:sapphire lasers and optical parametric oscillators. They generate linearly polarized nearly transformed-limited pulses with a pulse duration of 200 fs, at a repetition rate of 80 MHz and an average power of 1 W. Compact and maintenance-free, the lasers are fiber-based, have a very good beam profile, and do not require optical alignment.

MPBC’s mode-locked picosecond fiber lasers operate in the 1-µm or the 1.5-µm regime. Based on an all-fiber design, the MLFL is highly reliable (10,000 hrs) and maintenance-free. Laser emission wavelength, repetition rate, pulse width and output power can be customized to meet specific customer requirements with average output powers of up to 3000 mW, depending upon the configuration. To ensure an environmentally-stable linearly-polarized output and turnkey self-start operation, all components are made of polarization-maintaining fiber.

TOPTICA's FemtoFiber lasers provide reliable femto-/picosecond pulses based on polarization-maintaining fibers and SAM mode-locking. Different models (1560/780 nm, VIS/NIR tunable output, IR/NIR supercontinuum, short-pulse) cover a wide range of applications, e.g. time-domain terahertz, microscopy, attoscience and as seed lasers.

NKT Photonics' passively mode-locked ultrafast fiber lasers exhibit a compact packaging and the lowest phase noise on the market. A special hybrid laser setup, consisting of state-of-the-art polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber technology and advanced dispersion control, allows for high pulse energy generation while supporting perfectly transform-limited soliton pulses without Kelly sidebands, temporal pedestals, or satellite pulses. NKT Photonics lasers have been designed for high precision applications requiring long-term amplitude stability, low phase noise, and timing jitter, and 24/7 maintenance-free operation.

Menlo Systems' femtosecond fiber lasers based on Menlo figure 9® patented laser technology are unique in regard to user-friendliness and robustness. We offer solutions for scientific research as well as laser models engineered for OEM integration. From the shortest pulses to highest average power beyond 10 Watts and pulse energy beyond 10 μJ, we have the solution for your application ranging from basic research to industrial applications in spectroscopy, quality control, and material processing.

The MLL-100 generates sub-100 fs laser pulses at 100 and 200 MHz. Control inputs for cavity length and oscillator pump power allow control over f_opt and f_CEO, respectively.
