MENHIR-1550 GHz Repetition Rate fs Laser

Our partner  is devoted to offering cutting-edge femtosecond laser solutions allowing applications in any situation, from laboratories to harsh environment. Through innovative design and technology, we have developed femtosecond laser systems reaching a repetition rate up to 2.5 GHz with unprecedent reliability and noise-performances.

The MENHIR-1550 SERIES is the first femtosecond laser at 1550 nm with GHz repetition-rate reaching the industrial-quality required by customers.
Menhir Photonics femtosecond laser sources are based on robust and well-engineered designs, offering excellent reliability with the lowest phase noise and timing jitter on the market from soliton mode locking. Continuous 24/7 operation, user-friendly and self-starting, the MENHIR-1550 series has been designed to facilitate OEM integration and enable the specific customers’ needs.
Available in various versions with different repetition rates. Learn more on the characteristics of 250 MHz, 1 GHz and 2.5 GHz versions.
