Picophotonics develops advanced semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) based Q‑switched microchip lasers that offer compact architecture and industrial-grade stability.
This unique laser structure delivers high energy, short optical pulses with single-frequency spectra at multiple wavelength bands, including 532 nm, 767 nm, 1064 nm and 1535 nm.
Our proprietary SESAM technology enables tailored pulse durations — from nanoseconds down to 50 ps — and high repetition rate — from single pulse to MHz — for demanding OEM and research applications.
With built-in amplification, our solutions achieve pulse energies up to 10 µJ, supporting a wide range of spectroscopy, ranging, and analytical applications.
Designed specifically for industrial integration, our microchip lasers combine compact size with exceptional optical performance.
The monolithic microchip design ensures high peak powers (up to kW level), and long-term reliability even in demanding environments.
We offer an OEM-ready laser platform optimized for cost-effectiveness, and ease of integration.
With deep expertise in advanced lasers and semiconductor technology, we are well placed to address challenging applications with a customer-centric strategy. Our roots at Optoelectronics Research Centre of Tampere University ensure a solid foundation of research excellence, innovation, and advanced engineering.
