Stable pump sources for scientific laser systems

Suitable wavelengths around 2 µm make thulium fiber lasers attractive pump sources for holmium-doped gain media such as Ho:YAG, Ho:YLF and holmium-doped tungstates.

Stable output power and high beam quality support efficient coupling and reproducible pump conditions in research and industrial laser development.

Beyond holmium: Raman and nonlinear pumping

Futonics lasers can also serve as pump sources for Raman shifting in crystals or fibers and for optical parametric oscillators that extend access to longer wavelengths.

The compact fiber-laser architecture is suitable for laboratory setups, custom laser development and OEM integration where stable pump performance is required.

Pump coupling into Ho:YAG, Ho:YLF and tungstates

Thulium fiber lasers provide pump radiation for holmium-doped gain media when their wavelength matches the pumping task. Suitable gain media include Ho:YAG, Ho:YLF and holmium-doped tungstates. These media are relevant to mid-infrared laser development, scientific experiments and medical or industrial laser sources.

High beam quality supports optical coupling, while stable output helps maintain reproducible pumping conditions. Wavelength, operating mode, output power and coupling optics must be selected in relation to the actual gain medium and experimental or OEM system.

Raman shifting, OPO pumping and laser research

In Raman applications, the pump radiation is coupled into a Raman crystal or fiber to access other wavelength ranges. Our lasers also serve as pump sources for optical parametric oscillators, or OPOs, and other nonlinear optical systems where stable power and beam quality are important to the experimental setup.

Our pump sources support research into long-wavelength sources, ultrafast lasers and Q-switched lasers. The gain or conversion medium and the complete laser architecture determine the resulting output wavelength and pulse characteristics.

Evaluating your pump-laser requirements

Suitability depends on wavelength, output power, beam quality, operating mode, coupling optics and gain or conversion medium. Futonics supports research institutions, laboratories and industrial partners in selecting a suitable laser module.
