Company Profile

TOPTICA’s single-mode diode lasers set new standards in terms of power, low noise and convenient OEM integration. They come with diffraction limited TEM₀₀ output and reliable spectral properties, as well as optional robust fiber coupling. Compact design and low power consumption make them superior to old-fashioned, bulky and inefficient gas lasers. Multi laser engines seamlessly integrate several wavelengths into true one-box laser systems – switching between colors has never been easier. The systems‘ flexibility and ease of use enable straightforward deep integration into any customer’s system design.

Narrow linewidth, highest accuracy and great ease of use are the key attributes of TOPTICA’s tunable diode lasers. They are available with wavelengths ranging from the deep UV to the mid IR (< 190 nm - 4000 nm), which is the widest spectral coverage on the market. TOPTICA’s patented pro design (DE 10 2007 028 499, US 7970024) guarantees highest stability and the best specifications resulting in cutting-edge research grade lasers. These systems help achieve milestones in a variety of fundamental research projects and are future-proof due to a fully digital interface.

TOPTICA’s pulsed all-fiber lasers combine SAM mode-locked ring oscillators with PM fiber architecture, which guarantee robust 24 / 7 operation  and turnkey performance. A modular design concept with erbium- and ytterbium-doped fibers is the basis for different models (1560 / 780 nm, VIS / NIR tunable output, IR / NIR supercontinuum). Thus, pulse durations as low as 25 fs or output powers of more than 350 mW can be reached. In addition, dual-color solutions enable full flexibility by providing two laser beams simultaneously.

TOPTICA’s vast expertise with diode lasers and fiber technology offers exciting opportunities for sophisticated, integrated systems for demanding applications. Innovative solutions pave the way for easy utilization of continuous or pulsed terahertz radiation with ultra-broad bandwidth and unprecedented signal-to-noise ratio.

The DFC productline (Difference Frequency Combs) merges TOPTICA’s know-how in ultrafast laser oscillators with its long lasting expertise in tunable diode lasers and locking electronics. The integrated novel CERO-technology enables precise frequency referencing with these offset-free, fiber-based frequency combs. In addition, TOPTICA's tunable diode lasers in the region of 450 - 2200 nm can be phase-locked to the frequency combs. This way TOPTICA is able to provide complete, frequency referenced laser systems including wavelength meter and counter all from one source.
