Light Conversion's CARBIDE is a series of femtosecond lasers combining high average power and excellent power stability. These lasers feature market-leading output parameters without compromises to beam quality and stability. The compact and robust optomechanical design allows for a variety of applications in top-class research centers, as well as display, automotive, LED, medical, and other industries. The reliability of CARBIDE lasers has been proven by hundreds of systems operating 24/7 in industrial environments. 

CARBIDE features high-power water-cooled (CB3) and air‑cooled (CB5) models. The tunability of these lasers enables customers to discover the most efficient manufacturing processes. Tunable parameters include pulse duration (190 fs – 20 ps), repetition rate (single-shot – 10 MHz), pulse energy (up to 2 mJ), and average power (up to 120 W). A pulse-on-demand mode is available using the built‑in pulse picker. The CARBIDE femtosecond lasers can be equipped with industrial‑grade modules, including but not limited to harmonic generators and optical parametric amplifiers. 

Features:

  • 190 fs – 20 ps tunable pulse duration 
  • Maximum output of 120 W, 1 mJ or 80 W, 2 mJ 
  • Single-shot – 10 MHz repetition rate
  • Pulse-on-demand and BiBurst for pulse control 
  • Compact industrial-grade design 
  • Automated harmonic generators  
    (515 nm, 343 nm, 257 nm, or 206 nm) 
  • Air or water cooling
