Dazzlers for direct shaping of OPA or NOPA outputs

Fastlite recently developed Dazzler systems that can be used directly after OPA (Optical Parametric Amplifiers) and NOPA (Non collinear Optical Parametric Amplifiers). Thanks to these newly developed systems, Dazzler based experiments aiming for the coherent control of atoms, molecules and molecular systems have never been so easy!

For such Dazzlers, the compensation of the Dazzler material itself is mandatory to maintain short pulse capabilities at the output, whatever the wavelength range of interest. All of our Dazzler references listed below are capable of maintaining short pulse capabilities, i.e. self compensating for the Dazzler material dispersion, and achieve sophisticated pulse shaping. As an example, the generation of a multiple pulse sequence of 30fsec pulse duration, separated by 500fsec at a centre wavelength of 510nm has been demonstrated, evidencing the self compensation capability of these Dazzlers.
