| | Sponsored | | Multiphoton laser sources can be defined not simply by higher average power or shorter pulses, but by the combination of ultrabroad bandwidth, high peak power at the sample, and the ultimate ability to generate more useful signal with less optical power. The HÜBNER Photonics VALO Tidal femtosecond laser offers the broadest bandwidth of compact ultrafast fiber lasers ensuring more signal per mW! |
