Where to Buy Mode-locked Lasers
Mode-locked lasers generate trains of picosecond of femtosecond pulses, with pulse durations between about 5 fs and 50 ps. They are mostly solid-state bulk or fiber lasers, but one also uses dye lasers and mode-locked laser diodes. Cavity dumping and/or amplification may be used for higher pulse energies.

![]() Savanoriu Av. 237 02300 Vilnius Lithuania Quality: ISO 9001 | ![]() Due to their excellent stability and high output parameters, EKSPLA scientific picosecond lasers established their name as “Gold Standard” among scientific picosecond lasers. The innovative design of the new generation of picosecond mode-locked lasers features diode-pumping‑only technology, thus reducing maintenance costs and improving output parameters. Second, third, fourth and fifth (on some versions) harmonic options combined with various accessories, advanced electronics (for streak camera synchronization, phase-locked loop, synchronization of fs laser) and customization possibilities make these lasers well suited for many scientific applications, including optical parametric generator pumping, time-resolved spectroscopy, nonlinear spectroscopy, remote sensing, metrology and others. |
