The Laser Quantum MHz range is based on meeting the needs of the application by offering different architectures, pulse durations and operations. The self-starting and maintaining mechanism of the gecco takes only the start button and mode locking is achieved within 5 minutes. The venteon range is based on ultra-short pulse durations.

gecco - Power, pulse duration and repetition rate options are available

venteon one - Compact and robust source for sub 8 fs pulses

venteon power - Sub 8 fs pulses optimised for maximum power

The MHz range is based on meeting the needs of the application by offering different architectures, pulse durations and operations. The self-starting and maintaining mechanism of the gecco is extra-cavity and takes only the start button and mode locking is achieved within 5 minutes. The Venteon range is based on ultra short pulse durations.

gecco – Power, pulse duration and repetition rate options are available.

Venteon PULSE basic – Compact and robust source for sub 8fs pulses.

Venteon PULSE power – Sub 8fs pulses optimised for maximum power.

The Laser Quantum gecco is a femtosecond laser with an exceptionally robust mechanical design in a sealed housing comprising a proprietary mechanism to self-start, monitor and maintain its mode-locking. It is available in a choice of pulse durations, powers and repetition rates to suit many applications.

"The Gecco works great as a seed laser for our 25 fs kHz amplifier system. We are very happy to have this set-and-forget femtosecond laser delivering reliable and reproducible performance every day."

The Laser Quantum 532nm finesse pure laser system, the established choice of Ti: Sapphire pump source for integrators worldwide, is now available at powers of up to 16W. Far more compact than other 532nm lasers of its kind, the finesse boasts lifetimes extending far beyond our industry leading 5 year/15,000 hour warranty period, with pump diode MTBF greater than 40,000 hours; double that of many similar sources. The finesse pure CEP has the additional benefit of direct output modulation feedback technology for carrier envelope phase control without the need for AOM. Push the boundaries of science, with the finesse family.

The Laser Quantum Venteon PULSE OPCPA seed laser system represents the ideal front-end for broadband few-cycle OPCPA applications. The spectral bandwidth of this laser allows for the generation of broadband sub-6fs pulses as signal for a subsequent NOPA stage and provides sufficient pulse energy (>30 pJ @ 1030nm) for seeding an Yb-based amplifier pump stage. The pulses are provided by two separate output ports and are intrinsically self-synchronized with ultra-low timing jitter
