ALS-VIS

Single frequency, CW laser for your power hungry application

Industrial applications like high performance metrology in the semicon industry or quantum computing require extremely stable, reliable and powerful laser sources.

The ALS-VIS series is a range of lasers and amplifiers based on innovative fiber technology and represents a real breakthrough on the laser market especially over solid-state technologies. It combines the most stringent fiber laser specifications: high power, single mode, single frequency, ultra-low noise, to enable the most demanding applications.

This product line is linked to our ALS-IR product line by single pass SHG. Our ALS-VIS laserheads are coolerless and this design enables outstanding beam pointing stability and consistent beam quality.

The unique all-fibered architecture and the absence of complex cooling systems allows for reliability, robustness and efficient integration in industrial or academic setups.

Applications

Holography & augmented reality

Light-field recording with phase information, for recording of patterns and pseudo-3D images. Coherent diode lasers at 407 nm, 457 nm, 514 nm, 647 nm or other wavelengths in the RGB region, and even in the UV region with power levels of several 100 mW have become the optimal choice for holography – especially in industrial applications. Whereas the original sources were bulky and operated at a fixed wavelength, diode lasers are tunable, so they perfectly match the user requirements.

Maskless lithography & laser direct writing

In modern microlithographic systems compact violet and UV diode lasers have taken the place of bulky gas lasers or HeCd lasers. The superior performance of diode lasers enable improved up-times, lower cost of ownership and qualities of written features, which haven’t been imagined before this paradigm shift.

Argon-ion laser replacement

Argon gas lasers have a long legacy for emission wavelengths like 488 nm or 515 nm. But they come with a low optical-electrical efficiency (< 0.1 %), bulky water cooling, frequent argon tube replacements, and are prone to misalign. Today, cost-efficient and long-lived fiber laser technology replaces them.

Semicon inspection & metrology

Laser-based metrology and inspection have become indispensable tools for shrinking feature sizes, more and thinner layers, as well as increasing chip and package areas.

Quantum physics science

TOPTICA's products are widely and successfully used for scientific applications in fundamental quantum technology. In these fields quantum physics, quantum optics, atom optics, photonics, statistical physics and related fields are investigated in order to understand the basics of quantum technology.

Atom quantum computing & simulation

Atoms are excellent quantum systems for both quantum computing and quantum simulation. They can be ultimately controlled in all of their quantum states and even millions..

Ion quantum computing & simulation

Ions are ideal qubits for quantum computing and simulation due to their excellent isolation and precise quantum-state control.
They are ionized, laser-cooled, and trapped in electromagnetic traps under ultra-high vacuum using specialized lasers and fields.

Options

Seed laser

The ALS-VIS can be supplied not only as an amplifier, but as a laser. This requires the addition of the proper seed laser. Ask us for the best fit for your application.

Dual output laserhead

This option gives the user access to the non-converted IR that is available after the single pass SHG arrangement in the laserhead. This single mode, single frequency and ultra-low noise IR signal is injected in a second laserhead and goes through a >35dB isolator.

Rack cooling

Air-cooled or water-cooled. Note that some architecture must be associated with a water-cooled rack

Remote control interface

The ALS-RCI device enables a full external control of the product via serial commands (UART protocol) or via software.
