Application offensive for ultrafast lasers in the kW range

Press Release /

Experts from 13 different Fraunhofer institutes are working on the development of multi-kW ultrafast lasers and various applications in the Fraunhofer Cluster of Excellence Advanced Photon Sources CAPS. A user facility with application laboratories in Aachen and Jena is being created for this purpose, laboratories in which partners from industry and research can work with the new technology.

The scaling of the multi-kW ultrafast fiber laser is based on the coherent combination of several individual beams.
