Nonlinear Optics
Nonlinear optics is a branch of optics that deals with various kinds of optical nonlinearities, aiming to identify new and efficient nonlinear materials. The materials of interest include laser-active media, semiconductors, photonic crystals, and others, which may have the potential to host extreme light-matter interactions induced by high-intensity or high-repetition-rate ultrashort light pulses in single and multiple filamentation regimes.
Nonlinear optics is essential for the development of coherent broad-bandwidth light sources, pulse compression techniques, and the generation of coherent broad-bandwidth radiation based on self-action effects of intense light pulses in wide aperture functional materials.
Light Conversion’s product portfolio includes multiple laser sources such as PHAROS and CARBIDE femtosecond lasers, FLINT oscillators, and OPCPA systems, widely used to investigate nonlinear phenomena.
