Project: High power femtosecond laser systems based on ytterbium doped sesquioxide crystals
| Acronym | Femtoxide (Reference Number: 12341) |
| Duration | 01/12/2018 |
| Project Topic | High power femtosecond laser systems with pulse durations below 250 fs and record powers will be developed for emerging industrial laser applications. The system will be based on ytterbium doped sesquioxide crystals that have a unique set of properties in terms of gain bandwidth and thermal conductivity. Currently such crystals are difficult to produce and prohibitively expensive. In this project, a new growth technology for high quality crystals at a competitive price will be developed as well. |
