Mode-locked thulium fiber laser

Working in a development laboratory

Completely fiber-based, mode-locked ytterbium laser

Work of the group focusses on:

• 2 µm ultrashort pulse fiber oscillators based on thulium-doped glass fibers
• Fiber amplifiers in the wavelength range of 2 µm
• Power scaling of ytterbium-doped ultrashort pulse fiber oscillators in the wavelength range of 1 µm (giant-chirped oscillators)

Current scientific work and projects:

• IMPROV „Innovative Mid-infrared high power source for resonant ablation of organic based photovoltaic devices“ (EU)
• SYNERGIE „Femtosecond fiber laser system with high repetition rates and pulse energies for treating presbyopia (BMBF)
• Cluster of Excellence QUEST (DFG)
