>20-Watts
Average Power Ultrashort-pulse Laser

IMPULSE™
is an all-diode-pumped, direct-diode-pumped Yb-doped fiber
oscillator/amplifier system capable of producing variable
pulse energies up to 10 microjoules at repetition rates between
200 kHz1; and 25 MHz (20 Watts average power output at 2 MHz.)
This is more than an order-of-magnitude higher than has traditionally
been available in a one-box ultrashort pulse laser design.
IMPULSE™
is based on a revolutionary new concept in mode-locked oscillator/amplifier
technology. The use of a Yb-doped fiber-oscillator/fiber-amplifier
design combines the low noise performance associated with
solid state operation with the high spatial mode quality of
fiber lasers.
IMPULSE™
is a compact, robust source of femtosecond pulses with the
ease-of-operation, stability and reliability you would expect
from a fiber source. And all its major parameters are computer
controlled, which allow it to be easily interfaced to your
industrial workstation or experiment. Optional accessories
include micromachining workstations, harmonic generators,
and OPA/NOPA wavelength converters.
