Where to Buy Scientific Lasers

Ultrafast laser systems from AMPHOS are used in scientific applications such as OPCPA pumping, attosecond physics, high harmonic generation and free electron lasers. Due to the high performance, such as up to 1 kW average output power with the Amphos5000, scientists can explore physics in extreme parameter ranges and with high signal-to-noise ratios due to high pulse repetition rates.

What kind of laser do you need for your research? A tunable supercontinuum laser for your materials and nano-photonics research or perhaps for bioimaging and microscopy? A single frequency laser for atomic, molecular & optical physics?

We have a wide range of advanced and reliable lasers for many different applications.

Menlo Systems' portfolio of scientific lasers covers femtosecond fiber lasers, including laser stabilization and synchronization, ultrastable lasers with ultranarrow linewidth, and microjoule lasers.

We offer erbium and ytterbium doped femtosecond fiber lasers with optional subsequent frequency conversion to cover a wide wavelength range for spectroscopic applications. Based on Menlo figure 9® patented mode locking technology, our lasers are unique in regard to user-friendliness and robustness. We offer solutions for laser stabilization, laser synchronization and ASOPS, and complete timing distribution systems.

Our ultrastable lasers with ultranarrow linewidth are available at nearly any wavelength to serve applications such as optical clocks interrogation.

The PHAROS is a femtosecond laser system combining millijoule pulse energy and high average power for your scientific applications. The compact and robust optomechanical design features of PHAROS lead to stable laser operation in varying environments. The use of solid state laser diodes for pumping of Yb medium significantly reduces maintenance cost and provides long laser lifetime.

TOPTICA's products are widely and successfully used for scientific applications in fundamental quantum technology. In these fields quantum physics, quantum optics, atom optics, photonics, statistical physics and related fields are investigated in order to understand the basics of quantum technology. Whenever a laser is required – pulsed or cw, tunable or actively frequency stabilized – a frequency comb or even a complete solution combining many lasers and photonicals, TOPTICA is the ideal partner.

The HI-Q™ Laser houses a proprietary driver/controller and the OEwaves laser source which is based on a high quality factor (Q) Whispering Gallery Mode (WGM) micro-resonator. The laser is scalable to a variety of wavelengths in 370–4500 nm.

The unique technology of the OEwaves HI-Q™ Laser leverages the self-injection on locking of a suitable commercially available laser diode via a resonant optical feedback from a high-Q WGM micro-resonator. Its monolithically integrated approach along with micro-scale mass and volume make the laser virtually insensitive to environmental vibrations.

Thorlabs manufactures an extensive selection of ultrafast lasers and related products for control and characterization. Applications from nonlinear excitation and amplifier seeding to THz and supercontinuum generation are served by a family of products covering a spectral range from 700 – 4500 nm. Femtosecond fiber lasers and Ti:sapphire oscillators are among our key ultrafast laser offerings. Complimenting our ultrafast laser systems is a suite of chirped mirrors, low GDD optics, and related products for pulse measurement, pre-compensation, and dispersion measurement.

With the taccor laser family, Laser Quantum offers a range of femtosecond lasers with a repetition rate between 1 – 10 GHz. They are all turn-key products that combine the pump laser and oscillator in a compact mono-block design that greatly reduces the maintenance needs compared to other similar designs.

The venteon laser technology name is synonymous with the science of few cycle, broadband laser pulses. Used in many areas of physical, biological and chemical research e.g. two photon microscopy, CEP stabilisation applications and pump-probe spectroscopy, the venteon range is characterised by reliable performance with long lifetimes. The venteon family based around short pulse generation includes members that are designed to meet individual specification demands of the researcher. Optimised for Power, bandwidth, CEP or OPCPA seeding the venteon family has the right laser.
