Advantages

Energy efficient

Reduces operating costs as they operate quietly without producing excessive heat.

Easy to transport

You can easily transport your lasers to different locations thanks to their compact and robust design.

Fixed, tunable or fixed+tunable wavelength outputs

You can select between single- and tunable-wavelength outputs. You also have the option of a second fixed or tunable wavelength, which allows you to choose the best option for your application.

Plug-and-play

The lasers are turn-key, allowing them to operate within minutes.

Ready to use out of the box

Our lasers arrive fully assembled, according to your specifications. You don’t need technical assistance to install, tune or setup.

Continuous 24/7 performance

Industrial reliability in a compact form factor.

Perfectly matched for 2P/SHG/THG-imaging

Our lasers are designed to fit any multi-photon imaging system. We will customize them for your specific needs.

Compact design

You can set up your lasers in almost any workspace. The small unit controller can be easily concealed away from the rest of the experiment. The laser head is free and flexible, allowing it to conveniently fit almost anywhere in the setup.
