Ultrafast Laser Systems

Ultrafast laser systems generate extremely short bursts of light, often in the femtosecond (quadrillionth of a second) to picosecond (trillionth of a second) range. These lasers produce highly precise, intense pulses used in scientific research, medical procedures, and materials processing. Their rapid pulse rate allows for detailed observations and modifications at microscopic levels, minimizing heat damage. Advanced components like mode-locking mechanisms enable these rapid bursts, making ultrafast laser systems powerful tools for exploring and manipulating materials with exceptional precision.
