Our ultrafast laser product range includes products such as the ORPHEUS optical parametric amplifier (OPA), PHAROS and CARBIDE laser systems from Light Conversion and ultrafast optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) from APE.
For the widest spectral coverage in the industry (190nm - 20um) choose the ORPHEUS series of OPAs from Light Conversion. The Topas femtosecond /picosecond (fs/ps) OPA offers a range of pulse energies up to 1mJ and durations as short as 20fs. Light Conversion's femtosecond pulsed PHAROS laser is a compact, single-unit, Yb:KGW system delivering <180fs pulses, high average powers of up to 15W and 1.5mJ per pulse from single shot to 200kHz repetition rate at 1028nm. If you are looking for a low cost solution generating picosecond pulses tunable over a wide range with high output energy then APE's Levante OPO is the system of choice.
The APE PulseSelect is the tool of choice for pulse picking from trains of pulses from ultrafast laser systems.
Newly designed picosecond and femtosecond OPOs with fully automated control for key applications such as coherent Raman spectroscopy (CARS and SRS), multiphoton microscopy, quantum dot excitation and transient absorption microscopy (TAM).
High power version of the hugely popular Levante Emerald ps OPO, offering up to 6W of tunable ps pulses in the NIR/IR range. Perfect for applications such as ARPES, when combined with the APE HarmoniXX series to reach ~190nm (6.5eV).
The compact pulse compressor femtoControl from APE allows optimisation of the length of femtosecond pulses in an easy and efficient way.
Light Conversion's industrialised CARBIDE femtosecond laser systems nicely complement the PHAROS family, offering output powers of >40W (>400μJ) and >80W (800μJ).
The ORPHEUS family is a series of dedicated collinear and non-collinear Optical Parametric Amplifiers with femtosecond or picosecond pulses, for use with the Light Conversion PHAROS and CARBIDE lasers (i.e. pumped at 1030nm). The ORPHEUS OPAs maintain all the excellent features of Light Conversion's hugely successful TOPAS series of OPAs: high output pulse stability throughout the entire tuning range, high output beam quality, full computer control via USB, as well as optional frequency mixers to extend the tuning range from the UV right up to the mid-IR.
I-OPA series of optical parametric amplifiers marks a new era of simplicity in the world of tunable wavelength femtosecond light sources. Based on the 10 years of experience producing ORPHEUS series optical parametric amplifiers, this solution brings together the flexibility of tunable wavelength with the robust industrial-grade design.

Newly designed picosecond and femtosecond OPOs with fully automated control, and up to ~3W in the IR range. Perfectly suited for most ultrafast pump lasers operating at around ~1um.
Light Conversion's SHBC is the Second Harmonic Bandwidth Compressor for the PHAROS laser.
The FLINT is an Ytterbium-based femtosecond laser oscillator, pumped by high-brightness laser diode modules, and generating extremely stable ultrashort pulses, is ideal for OPO pumping and nonlinear physics such as multiphoton imaging.
Optical parametric chirped pulse amplification is the only currently available laser technology simultaneously providing high peak and average power, as well as few cycle pulse duration required by the most demanding scientific applications.
The HarmoniXX Difference Frequency Generation (DFG) Unit is designed to extend any suitable NIR ultrafast laser source up into the mid infrared range (up to ~20um).
The TOPAS family is a range of white-light seeded femtosecond Optical Parametric Amplifiers (OPAs), which can deliver continuous wavelength tunability from 189nm to 20 microns with high efficiency and via computer control. With more than 1300 units installed worldwide, TOPAS has become an OPA market leader, and a standard tool for numerous scientific applications.
The KATANA HP is the laser of choice for high power, picosecond pulses in the yellow and infrared. In the standard configuration, the KATANA HP provides pulses of 700 ps duration and a pulse repetition rate of 20-80 MHz.
If you need a versatile, sub-nanosecond laser system designed for all industrial applications, the KATANA laser is an excellent choice.
CRONUS-3P is an OPA-based laser source developed specifically for advanced nonlinear microscopy.
The easy-to-use and truly hands-free tunable picosecond light source. Ideal for SRS and CARS, offering three temporally and spatially overlapped picosecond pulse trains to cover the full fingerprint region and beyond.
HIRO harmonic generator for the PHAROS laser providing high power harmonic radiation at 515nm, 343nm and 258nm wavelengths.
The Tilt and Pulse Autocorrelator (TiPA) System from Light Conversion is an invaluable tool for alignment of ultrashort pulse laser systems based on the chirped pulse amplification technique. Its unique design allows monitoring and measuring the pulse duration as well as the pulse front tilt in both vertical and horizontal planes.
