Koheras BOOSTIK HP – high power, single-frequency lasers

The turn-key 19″ rack system includes control electronics and power supply and is ideal for laboratory work and experimental research e.g. in metrology.

You can choose the operating wavelength of the BOOSTIK HP system freely in the 1 or 1,5 µm range, and the excellent beam quality enables efficient frequency conversion.

The combination of ultra-low noise, narrow linewidth, and high power output makes the Koheras BOOSTIK HP laser a highly versatile system for a wide range of applications.

Use the BOOSTIK HP for:

• Optical length and frequency standards
• Quantum optics/computing & phenomena, such as optical trapping, optical lattice, Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), atom interferometer, squeezing
• Nonlinear optics pump source (SHG, DFG, OPO)
• Laser-based metrology, precision laser interferometry, spectroscopy
• Optical heterodyning
• Coherent communication
• Coherent beam combining

Choose your operating wavelength freely in the 1 or 1.5 µm range, and the excellent beam quality enables efficient frequency conversion.
