Core of figure 9® is an all polarization-maintaining fiber design, efficiently decoupling the laser cavity from perturbations such as vibrations and temperature variation. The technology contains no criticalor life time limiting components, such as degradable optics. Whether
designed to serve science or industry, our femtosecond fiber lasers
share exceptional performance:■ Robust.
A single well-defined mode lock state guarantees robust self-start andmode locked operation within seconds – even in harshest environments.

-60-80-100-120

After installation with the switch of a key, our lasers are maintenancefree and thermally managed without any external cooling.
