We are developing ultrafast lasers and photonic systems for applications in biomedicine, micro-material processing and optical communications. By deploying our application-driven custom-tailored ultrafast lasers, we advance the application performance and potential, due to optimized lasers’ features, which are not commercially available.

Example of a custom-made prototype laser as a comb source – blue diode pumped Ti:Sa laser generating modelocked 0.2 nm broad spectra fine-tuned exactly at 780 nm, with 190 MHz pulse repetition rate.
