The Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) carries out research and development in the field of laser technology and is supported by the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Transport of the State of Lower Saxony.On June 20, 1986, the Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) was founded under the patronage of the Ministry of Trade, Industry, Technology, and Transportation in Lower Saxony. The institution's legal form is that of a registered association.
The association's main task is to support applied research in laser technology on a non-profit basis.
The LZH is involved in:
- R&D projects in the field of laser development and laser applications
- Technical and scientific consulting, to link research and practice
- Industry-oriented training of experts for applying and operating laser systems
The LZH cooperates closely with institutes at the University of Hannover, the Institute of Quantum Optics, the Institute of Production Engineering and Machine Tools, and the Department of Material Science. Furthermore, it cooperates with the Institution for Material Inspections (Hannover), the Welding Institute of Research and Training (Schweisstechnische Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt Hannover), as well as the Institute for Integrated Production Hanover (Institut fuer integrierte Produktion Hannover gGmbH).
The association operates on a non-profit basis, as laid down in the bylaws.
Research, development, and consulting are the main tasks of the LZH. Since its founding in 1986, the LZH has served as a competent link between physics-oriented and engineering-oriented fields.
Close cooperation between production engineers, material scientists, and physicists makes means that interdisciplinary solutions can be found in all fields of laser applications.
