Femtosecond lasers - NKT Photonics (original) (raw)
ORIGAMI femtosecond lasers
Our all-in-one, single-box, microjoule femtosecond lasers. The laser head, controller, and air-cooling system are all integrated into one robust package so small it fits in your hand luggage.
The OptoCage™ platform ensures world-class stability
In any ultrafast laser, light needs to be guided through free space. For our ORIGAMI lasers, short-pulsed light is generated in an intricate free-space cavity employing solid-state amplification.
Inside our ORIGAMI lasers, many optical components are placed with high accuracy to ensure precision short-pulse generation over and over. These components must be stable despite large changes in the operating environment.
To ensure a consistent laser cavity performance, thermal and mechanical stability is necessary. Optical components are bonded into precision-machined positions within a block (known as a “cage”) of aircraft-grade aluminum to achieve world-class stability. The temperature of the cage is controlled constantly to ensure minimal thermal and mechanical instability.
We call this the OptoCage™ technology. It’s what ensures the market-leading thermo-mechanical stability and best-in-class pointing stability in our ultrafast lasers.
