Altos Photonics, Inc.

Since 1995 we have worked with customers and suppliers to enable breakthrough technologies, innovative products, and cutting-edge research. We have been involved in the acquisition and licensing of key technologies to assist both start-ups and established companies. For example, Altos has licensed rights to AdvR, Inc. for 16 KTP (Potassium Titanyl Phosphate) waveguide related patents and licensed rights from UC Irvine for a narrow-bandwidth synchronously pumped picosecond OPO/OPA, US Patent No. 6,804,044. Our suppliers include EKSPLA, Light Conversion, EKSMA Optics, Standa, LaserShield, and TMC.

Our pulsed lasers range from high-energy systems used in high-energy physics and non-linear spectroscopy to DPSS systems used in micro-machining and ultra-fast applications. Our femtosecond, mode locked, and Q-switched lasers and tunable OPO/OPA systems are used by leading scientists and engineers around the world.

Laser components include UV and IR optics, non-linear crystals (BBO, KTP, ZGP, KYW, KGW, etc), optical mounts, motorized stages & positioners, and laser safety glasses / shielding. We are happy to provide custom solutions and specifications for research and OEM applications.
