Research and Development Projects
TiSa TD Project
The TiSa TD Project has received funding from the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme (FP7-ICT), under grant agreement no. 619177.
(TiSa TD) Ultrafast High-Average Power Ti:Sapphire Thin-Disk Oscillators and Amplifiers is a joint research programme. The main objective of the project was to demonstrate the feasibility of industrial high-average power ultrafast Ti:sapphire (Ti:Sa) lasers and their excellent qualification for demanding high-productivity precision laser material processing applications.
Within the project, two ultrafast Ti:Sa TD laser systems, one with chirped pulse amplification (CPA) to obtain high-energy pulses and the other without CPA for high repetition rates, both with a maximum average output power of at least 200 W at a pulse duration of well below 100 fs.
