A practical picosecond laser source for advanced applications.
Start with what your instrument needs to do.
PULSERA APPLICATIONS
Every application brings its own wavelength, power, repetition rate, and integration requirements. AB Photonics works with instrument teams to identify the right Pulsera configuration, then supports the path from early testing through commercial production.
RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY
Bring pulsed Raman instruments out of the lab and into practical use.
Pulsera provides mode-locked picosecond pulses, narrow spectral output, and watt-class power in a compact platform suited to pulsed Raman spectroscopy. The configurable architecture can be adapted around the excitation wavelength, power, and repetition rate your instrument requires, giving product teams a clearer path from early testing to a repeatable commercial system.
FLUORESCENCE IMAGING AND ANALYSIS
Give imaging systems the pulsed excitation they need without building around a complex laser.
Picosecond excitation can support laser-induced fluorescence, fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy, and other time-sensitive fluorescence techniques. Pulsera combines the laser, electronics, and air cooling in one enclosure, making it easier to integrate into microscopy and imaging platforms. Standard and custom configurations allow teams to align wavelength, power, and repetition rate with the instrument they are developing.
TIME-RESOLVED SPECTROSCOPY
Study fast responses with a source designed for controlled excitation.
Time-resolved spectroscopy and time-resolved photoluminescence use pulsed excitation to study how materials and samples respond and decay over time. Pulsera provides picosecond pulses with configurable wavelength, power, and repetition rate in a compact, self-contained system. Instrument teams can spend less time assembling the laser source and more time developing the measurement and analysis around it.
SEMICONDUCTOR METROLOGY AND MATERIAL CHARACTERIZATION
Develop practical measurement tools for materials that require new approaches.
Pulsera can serve as a picosecond excitation source for semiconductor metrology and material characterization, including emerging work involving wide-bandgap semiconductors. Its compact format supports integration into benchtop and OEM instruments, while configurable wavelengths and operating parameters help engineering teams explore the requirements of a specific material, detector, and measurement method.
OPO PUMPING
Extend your system toward the wavelength your application requires.
Mode-locked picosecond lasers can be used as pump sources for optical parametric oscillators when an application requires access to wavelengths beyond a standard laser output. Pulsera’s narrow spectral content, watt-class optical output, and configurable architecture offer a promising foundation for OPO pumping. The AB Photonics engineering team can work with you to evaluate power, repetition rate, and integration requirements.
