Where to Buy Picosecond Lasers
Common types of picosecond lasers are actively or passively mode-locked solid-state bulk lasers, mode-locked fiber lasers and laser diodes. Besides, there are highly compact Q-switched lasers and amplified laser systems emitting picosecond laser pulses.

Check List for Picosecond Lasers
- At what wavelength should it emit – with what precision or stability, and with what bandwidth?
- What is the required average output power?
- What is the output beam quality? (It will normally be close to diffraction-limited.)
- What is the pulse duration, peak power and pulse repetition rate (variable or fixed)?
- Is the pulse quality high enough concerning time–bandwidth product, temporal pedestals, pre- and after-pulses, and possible side lobes in the spectrum?
- Will the pulse properties be stable in some range of temperatures and over a longer time?
- Is the device sensitive to back-reflections? (Will you need a Faraday isolator to protect it? With what degree of isolation?)
- Are the outer dimensions of the laser source setup and power supply or driver suitable for you?
- Is the device sufficiently robust? (Does it require realignment after moderate mechanical shocks?)
In case that you need additional advice, consultancy from RP Photonics may be the solution.

| Company | Product Description |
 Composing with Light 61 chemin du Vieux Chêne 38246 Meylan France |  Teem Photonics offers a wide range of lasers with pulse durations as short as 100 ps. For example, the 266 nm PNU-M01210-1x0 laser, belongs to the Powerchip laser series, which also covers wavelengths of 1064 nm, 532 nm, 355 nm and 213 nm with pulse durations below 500 ps. Peak powers of tens of kilowatts (or even 160 kW at 1064 nm) are generated. Compared with mode-locked picosecond lasers, the pulse repetition rates are limited to about 100 kHz), while the pulse energies are far higher – tens of microjoules.
