Nonlinear frequency conversion techniques access wavelengths that cannot be generated directly from laser diode technology. Via second or fourth harmonic generation, TOPTICA laser systems can access the UV, blue, green, yellow and orange spectral ranges at high powers. TA-SHG pro […]
TOPTICA is a proud partner in the project ATIQ that started this month. It is the largest German consortium to build, operate and use quantum-computing demonstrators based on trapped ions. 25 partners from industry, research institutions and academia have teamed […]
2-photon fluorescence microscopy has become a key technology in biological imaging in neuroscience enabling three-dimensional, noninvasive studies of the neuronal structure and activity on the submicron scale. The contrast mechanism in 2-photon microscopy in neuroscientific research is based on the […]
The BEC Awards ceremony took place during this year’s conference Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) 2021. The winners of the TOPTICA BEC Awards are elected biannually by an independent scientific committee. The TOPTICA Senior and Junior BEC Awards honor outstanding research in […]
Today is the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer. The ozone layer protects life on Earth from harmful solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The ozone layer is located 50 kilometers above the earth’s surface. It forms the transition […]
A powerful experimental laser developed by the European Southern Observatory (ESO), TOPTICA Projects1 and other industry partners2 passed a key test last month at the Allgaeuer Volkssternwarte Ottobeuren observatory in Germany. The adaptive-optics laser has important additional capabilities compared to […]
TOPTICA Photonics manufactures optical isolators from the ultraviolet to the near infrared. They have the highest available transmission in the forward direction, and the highest extinction in the reverse direction. TOPTICA’s isolators are designed for extreme performance, matching the demands […]
Executing a contract signed in late 2017 with the European Southern Observatory, ESO, TOPTICA Projects GmbH delivers the first guide star laser system for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) that is being built by ESO in the Chilean Atacama desert. […]
TOPTICA’s new TopWave 405 is the ideal replacement for the bulky and power hungry Krypton ion (406.7 nm and 413.1 nm) gas lasers commonly used in lithographic and holographic applications. The TopWave 405 provides 1 W output power at 405 nm combined with […]
Today’s applications of high-end laser systems are increasingly complex and demand short time to market. TOPTICA addresses both of these demands with its highly modular 19" Laser Rack Systems. The broad product lines of tunable diode lasers and frequency combs […]
