High-Energy 1030 nm Femtosecond Fibre Laser
Blade 1030 Femto from NPI Lasers
The Blade 1030 Femto is an ultrafast fibre laser for scientific and industrial applications requiring high pulse energy and precise pulse-timing control. It delivers >5 µJ pulse energy at 1 MHz, >5 W average power and repetition rates from 1 Hz to 1 MHz, including single-shot operation.
The pulse width can be adjusted from <300 fs to 8 ps. Wide-range GDD compensation and integrated gate, trigger and analogue-control functions support flexible integration into experiments and laser-based systems.
Why Choose the Blade 1030 Femto?
The Blade 1030 Femto combines high pulse energy with flexible pulse delivery. Its repetition rate can be adjusted from 1 Hz to 1 MHz and includes single-shot operation, making the laser suitable for applications in which precise timing and controlled energy deposition are more important than very high pulse frequencies.
With >5 µJ pulse energy at 1 MHz, >5 W average power and pulse widths from <300 fs to 8 ps, the system supports a broad range of ultrafast experiments and selected precision-processing applications. Gate, trigger and analog-control functions simplify synchronisation with external equipment and integration into complex laser setups.
Flexible Pulse Control and Dispersion Compensation
The Blade 1030 Femto provides pulse widths from <300 fs to 8 ps and GDD precompensation from -600,000 to +600,000 fs². This wide compensation range helps counteract dispersion introduced by external optics and beam-delivery components.
Electrical gate and trigger functions support synchronised operation with external equipment. An analog input enables external repetition-rate control, while single-pulse selection allows precisely controlled pulse delivery.
Optional Green Femtosecond Output
An optional second-harmonic-generation module is available for applications requiring green femtosecond pulses. The current data sheet specifies a pulse energy of >1 µJ for the green output.
