Toptica Photonics opens a facility in China

July 12, 2019
The branch, Toptica Photonics China, will focus on product development as well as supporting all of Toptica's lasers.

After more than 20 years in business, precision laser maker Toptica Photonics (Munich, Germany) has now opened a facility in China with a head office in Shanghai and a branch in Beijing.

Founded in March of this year, Toptica Photonics China will serve the needs of the Chinese academic and industrial sectors in the markets of quantum technologies, biophotonics, and materials processing, test, and measurement; the facility, which will provide sales, service, and application support for all of Toptica's lasers, is headed by Dr. Juergen Stuhler (chairman) of Toptica Photonics AG and Jason Fu (manager).

"We can now offer our customers in China direct sales and services for picosecond and femtosecond seeders," says Stuhler. "Toptica Photonics China will also support and supply our customers in the areas of quantum technology, tunable and single-frequency diode lasers, frequency combs, wavemeters, light engines for laser light microscopy, and terahertz systems for industrial metrology and security applications."

Realizing the Chinese need for state-of-the-art laser-systems technology, the facility has a strong focus on product development, says Fu, who notes that Toptica Photonics China has more than a dozen laser and optical specialists.
