Custom designed supercontinuum laser filters

Advanced Optical filters
for high powered Supercontinuum laser applications

Significant technological advances in optical sensing are emerging, these advances are set to change the way in which we probe Physics and Chemistry.


One of the technology drivers is the possibility to generate broad bandwidth, spatially coherent radiation of exceptional spectral brightness (supercontinuum laser sources). Supercontinuum radiation is generated through non-linear processes upon intense pumping of optical materials.


The Supercontinuum effect can be significantly enhanced in modified photonic crystal fibre structures. The cost of these sources are moving rapidly down into market areas where the high quality light can be utilised in more and more applications.

Applications:
·         Multimode optical communication
·         Fluorescence imaging
·         Confocal microscopy
·         Optical coherence tomography
·         Frequency Metrology
·         Gas sensing
