Applications

Transient absorption (TA) microscopy adds a spatial resolution to the quantitative characterization of time-dependent absorption of an optically excited sample.

Nonlinear microscopy is a powerful technique for imaging inside living organisms with a submicrometer resolution at millimeter depths.

Ultrafast electron microscopy is, essentially, a pump-probe technique where an ultrafast laser pulse excites the material and a delayed electron pulse detects it.

Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) and stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) are used for high-speed and high-sensitivity label-free vibrational imaging.

One of the most sophisticated and intriguing applications of high-energy femtosecond pulses is the process of high harmonics generation (HHG).

The main focus of nonlinear optics research is the development of new coherent broadband light sources, as well as novel techniques for pulse compression, and more.

X-ray generation using ultrashort high energy laser pulses is an attractive technique to obtain X-rays further used in spectroscopy and diffraction measurements.

Terahertz (THz) radiation is extensively used to study the dynamics of collective motions in solids and liquids or image optically non-transparent samples.

Sophisticated laser systems, such OPCPA, usually consist of multiple parts, the most essential being the front-end used for its pumping and seeding.

Optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification (OPCPA) is the only currently available technology simultaneously providing high peak and average power and a few-cycle pulse duration.
