Abstract

There is a wealth of applications for ultra-short, pulsed lasers in many areas of science and technology, material processing and also in medicine. However, their widespread use is severely hampered by the size and cost of these lasers, both in terms of acquisition and maintenance. This implies that there could be a large market for affordable, turn-key femtosecond lasers (1 fs = 10–15 s). A technical solution is now possible with a new generation of fiber lasers, which are made of standard telecom components. These fiber lasers are compact (A4 size) and scalable in cost and performance. They can also be produced in large volumes. They render water cooling methods and large power supplies obsolete.
