A single stage noncollinear amplification scheme is used. The noncollinear amplifier is pumped by the SHG of femtoREGEN™ Indust ria l or femtoREGEN™ science . SHG is integrated in the femtoTUNETM. A small fraction of the incoming 1045 nm pulse is used to create a white-light continuum. After amplification, signal pulses can be compressed using a pair of fused silica prisms (optional). The output bandwidth can be controlled by dispersion management in the white-light path before amplification. The wavelength range can be extended via sum frequency generation or SHG. Key features Optimized for operation with femtoREGENTM as pump source Pulse duration below 30 fs with compression Multiple femtoTUNETM SH modules can be pumped by a single femtoREGEN™ Optimized for a repetition rate up to 500 kHz Integrated second harmonic generation of pump source Manual wavelength tuning Compact and flexible design
