TURN-KEY: 100W-CLASS PCF AMPLIFIER UNIT
Based on its expertise in laser design and photonic crystal fiber interfacing, ALPhANOV developed a technology to build turn-key 100-Watt-class monolithic laser amplifiers with superior stability.
This technology relies on a Yb-doped microstructured fiber architecture. It can be tailored to meet specific requirements in terms of power, temporal regime and other functionalities.
