AURORA
Continuously Tunable Femtosecond OPA
- Tuning range from 210 nm to 16 μm
- Compatible with up to 2mJ pump energy
- Conversion efficiency up to > 13.5%

The AURORA femtosecond optical parametric amplifier is based on a stable optical and mechanical design, enabling flexible and tunable femtosecond laser pulse output. The wavelength range covers from ultraviolet (as short as 210 nm) to mid infrared (up to 16μm).
The AURORA femtosecond optical parametric amplifier is compatible with market-standard fiber and solid-state Yb ultrafast lasers, with a pump energy reception range of 10μJ to 2mJ and a pulse width compatibility range from 100fs to 1.5ps. Customers can achieve precise tuning of the desired center wavelength with a single click, without the need for complex manual adjustments. Comprehensive custom solutions can be provided according to customer requirements.

Carrier-Envelope Phase Stabilization
Achieving repeatable alignment between the pulse envelope and the peak of the carrier electric field is the cornerstone of attosecond science for exploring electron dynamics.

CARS and SRS Microscopy
A nonlinear vibrational imaging technique that uses a pump–Stokes–probe four-wave mixing process to generate a resonant anti-Stokes signal, enabling label-free chemical mapping with high speed and intrinsic vibrational contrast.
