TOPAS optical parametric amplifiers (OPAs)

The Light Conversion TOPAS optical parametric amplifiers (OPAs). Paired with existing amplified Ti:Sapphire lasers (i.e. pumped at 800nm), the TOPAS will provide tunable femtosecond or picosecond pulses from the UV right up to the mid-IR with fully automated computer control.
