Features

  • Few cycle pulses in a compact footprint
  • 800 nm, 1600 nm, 2000 nm, or 3000 nm output
  • High repetition rate, up to MHz
  • Industrial-grade pump, up to 320 W, 8 mJ
  • Exceptional power and pulse energy stability
  • CEP stabilization option

Benefiting from the industrial-grade stability and reliability of the PHAROS and CARBIDE lasers, ORPHEUS-OPCPA delivers few-cycle, CEP-stable pulses in a package as compact as our standard parametric amplifiers. All of the ORPHEUS OPCPA models use the same base architecture to produce CEP‑stable, few-cycle pulses in one of the four center wavelengths: 800 nm, 1600 nm, 2000 nm, and 3000 nm. ORPHEUS-OPCPA is available with a pulse compressor or without, thus, intended as seed sources, delivering background-free pulses with near‑single-cycle bandwidths, excellent spectral phase coherence, and CEP stability.

Using synchronized industrial-grade CARBIDE or PHAROS lasers, pump power of up to 320 W and pump pulse energy of up to 8 mJ is accessible. The use of other pump sources for higher power, such as thin-disk or innoslab lasers, is available upon request.
