Compact and Robust:
Explore the AMPHOS InnoSlab Technology

AMPHOS Lasersystems are based on InnoSlab Amplification Technology. InnoSlab amplifier systems are characterized by a very simple beam path. Large amplification with high efficiency can be achieved at high intensity without using a regenerative beam path.The extremely compact setup - the distance between the folding mirrors is just 35mm - leads to a robust, quasi monolithic package.

Figure of the AMPHOS InnoSlab Technology

Due to the line shaped amplification volume of the InnoSlab amplifier the pumping system is highly efficient. No symmetrization of the diode laser radiation is necessary. The usage of Yb:YAG as active medium allows high average power due to the stable YAG crystal and low quantum defect as well as ultrashort pulses in the 500fs range due to the broad emission spectrum.As the InnoSlab laser is crystal-based, the spectrum is typically close to the time-bandwidth-limit of the shortest pulse duration.Scalability of output power is also simple with InnoSlab lasers. By increasing the crystal width the output power can be increased keeping the high beam quality and without increasing the demand on brightness of diode lasers. This is unique for diode pumped solid state lasers.

TheMaster-Oscillator-Power-Amplifier (MOPA) setup allows for flexible lasersystems. Temporal structure (Pulse duration, repetition rate)  is set by the oscillator and the quasi linearInnoSlab amplifier boosts pulse energy and power to the required level.

Application in Science
and Industrial Production

Amphos is focusing on the core know-how of the last 13 years: manufacturing high quality laser systems based on the InnoSlab technology. We are working close with partners all over the world who integrate our lasers into their systems to address advanced applications.  

We are happy to connect you with our partners for further photonic add-on´s like external pulse compression down to few-cycle pulses, OPA & OPCPA and high harmonic generation.

OPCPA Pumping

High pulse energy, pulse duration around 1ps and high repetition rate make AMPHOS laser an ideal pump for OPCPA setups.

EUV generation

One of the key application in secondary sources. Driven by the high average power and flexibility in pulse duration and pulse shape of AMPHOS lasers highly efficient conversion rates can be achieved.

Attosecond physics

Shortest pulses are necessary to observe fast processes in nature such as electron movement in atoms or molecules. AMPHOS lasers are a perfect starting point for sophisticated scientific setups that are used in Attosecond science.

HHG generation

High harmonic generation is one of the most promising setups to build table top X-Ray or EUV sources. It requires powerful IR drive lasers to reach relevant output parameters. Due to the compactness AMPHOS lasers are ideally suited for such setups.

Cutting of glass

From very thin hardened glass to thick glass plate - AMPHOS laser parameters in combination with special focussing optics allow broad range of cutting geometries and high cutting speed.

CFRP machining

Ultrafast pulses ablate combinations of extremely different material such as hardest carbon fibers embedded in soft material like plastic without heating of the material. Both parts are vaporized by the intense laser pulses with highest quality.

Surface Structuring

High laser power is the key enabler for large area structuring. AMPHOS lasers support  various processing strategies from high repetition rate and fast scanning systems up to multi-spot application with high pulse energy.

Drilling

The field of laser drilling is extremely wide. Different material combinations from metal to ceramics to plastics can be treated and customized 3D hole geometries are used. AMPHOS lasers deliver high pulse energy and tailored temporal puls shapes to improve laser drilling.
