Description

The quality of any laser application crucially depends on the performance of the driving light source, i.e. the laser itself. In addition, most applications ask for more and more average power from the laser source to be cost-effective or sensitive enough. 

AFS‘s ultrafast fiber lasers are characterized by an outstanding performance combined with flexibility and maximum stability. All essential parameters are software controlled and can be tuned over a wide range, making them an extremely valuable tool in many applications.
