Light Conversion first delivered PHAROS in 2006 — a compact, customizable diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) femtosecond laser. Fifteen years later, Light Conversion can now take a moment to remember and celebrate the origin and evolution of PHAROS. PHAROS laser evolved from Twinkle sub-picosecond laser manufactured by Light Conversion between 1993 and 2000. Only 10 Twinkle lasers were produced. The year 2000 … Continue reading
Tandem organic solar cells have drawn much attention in the field of solar energy. They consist of two monolithically connected cells enabling a broader absorption spectrum and efficient use of photon energy. In a Nature Communications article, entitled “High performance tandem organic solar cells via a strongly infrared-absorbing narrow bandgap acceptor,” researchers use the ultrafast … Continue reading
Light Conversion is happy to announce that the new 2021 product catalog “FEMTOSECOND LASER SYSTEMS FOR SCIENCE” is now available online. Here is an excerpt from the first page of the catalog: Founded in 1994 as a Vilnius University spin-off, LIGHT CONVERSION is now a major ultrafast laser technology company with over 300 employees, 10% … Continue reading
Here are a few examples of some of the amazing microscopy done with Light Conversion lasers and OPAs: Functional neuroimaging deep inside a zebrafish brain using three-photon excitation (using OPA ORPHEUS F configuration) Live widefield label-free SHG imaging of fruit fly larva (using PHAROS laser) 3D structural harmonic imaging of TPPS aggregates (using FLINT laser) … Continue reading
Hot electron relaxation and transport in nanostructures involves a multitude of ultrafast processes relevant for applications in photocatalysis and optoelectronics. Researchers from Lund University employ time-resolved photoemission electron microscopy (Tr-PEEM) to image the relaxation of photogenerated hot electrons within InAs nanowires on a femtosecond time scale. According to Prof. Donatas Zigmantas, “High repetition rate of PHAROS is … Continue reading
The Club Laser et Procédés (CLP) team met with Marc Watremez, Industrial Market Development manager at Light Conversion. They asked him a few questions… Can you introduce yourself in a few words? My name is Marc Watremez, and I am the Industrial Market Development manager at LIGHT CONVERSION and a member of the board. Back … Continue reading
