09 Jan 2008 Amplitude Systèmes introduces Tangerine, a new series of high power ultrafast fiber amplifiers.
Fiber amplification has been widely recognized as an attractive technology to achieve high optical power. There are two key features in employing the fiber as the amplifier medium. Beam guiding in the fiber core leads to an exceptional spatial beam quality. Furthermore our system allows us to extract high average power thanks to efficient heat dissipation through the fiber periphery.
Until recently, the main challenge in the development of ultrafast fiber lasers has been the confinement of the laser beam in the fiber core, limiting the output pulse energy.
Thanks to groundbreaking patented technological advances in fiber design and amplifier technology, Tangerine is the first ultrafast fiber laser offering high average power, as well as high output energy.
The Tangerine comes as a standard product with 20W output average power in either 10 ps or < 700fs version and can also be customized and tailored to special requirements, making it the perfect system for research and industrial applications.
The Tangerine series of ultrafast fiber amplifier provides more than 10 µJ of pulse energy in a compact and rugged package. Featuring advanced optical performances in a highly stable housing, flexible control electronics as well as reliability and lifetime of key elements pump diodes, this turn-key system is an ideal tool for ultrafast micro- and nano-machining, non-linear optics, nanophotonics, and life science applications.
Located near Bordeaux, Amplitude Systèmes designs and manufactures advanced diode-pumped ultrafast lasers for scientific and industrial applications.
