The fiber based ring laser utilizes passive mode-locking leading to ultra short pulses. An integrated software routine automatically identifies the mode-locking state and guarantees optimum performance. This makes the C-Fiber a truly reliable turn-key commercial femtosecond laser source. Femtosecond Laser Source Technology The Menlo Systems fiber based femtosecond laser source takes advantage of the availability of telecom rated components to ensure long life-time and trouble-free operation. The fiber based ring cavity uses a highly doped Er-fiber as gain media. The self-starting passive mode-locking mechanism is superveyed by an integrated software routine. In the event that mode-locking is interrupted (e.g. due to heavy vibrations) the software routine takes control and automatically tunes the laser to a mode-locking state again. Front panel control of all functions of the stand alone unit allows easy handling, an RS232 interface is provided for data collection.
