Press releases worldwide
20 years ago, John L. Hall (Nobel laureate together with Theodor Hänsch “for their contributions to the development of laser-based precision spectroscopy, including the optical frequency comb technique”) and coworkers published a seminal paper1, in which they first reported on the stabilization of […]

eagleyard became part of the TOPTICA Photonics group in February 2013 and has since continued to operate separately under its own marketing brand and sales organization. Dr. Thomas Renner (CSO TOPTICA Photonics) comments „We have enjoyed the cooperation with our […]
So-called “TeraFETs” – field-effect transistors with integrated antennas for terahertz detection – are promising candidates for compact, chip-based, yet broadband terahertz receivers. A team of researchers from Frankfurt University, Ferdinand-Braun Institute (both Germany) and Vilnius University (Lithuania) has managed to […]
Prof. Dr. Alfred Leitenstorfer receives Kenneth J Button Award 2020 of the International Society of Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves for "establishing field-resolved technologies throughout the infrared regime and for studies of quantum phenomena under elementary spatial-temporal confinement". Dr. Leitenstorfer […]
A new era begins. After more than five thousand installed lasers in scientific laboratories, TOPTICA Photonics AG releases quantum-technology-approved laser modules for industrial rack integration. The novel product family includes narrow-linewidth tunable diode lasers, amplified or frequency-converted diode lasers, frequency […]
Measurement speed becomes particularly relevant if the task involves rapidly moving samples, e.g., thickness gauging in extrusion lines, or items on fast conveyor belts that may need to be screened with single-millimeter resolution. In contrast to conventional terahertz time-domain spectrometers, […]
Frequency combs are used to measure absolute optical frequencies and to stabilize cw-lasers to specific frequencies, for example in order to drive transitions in cold atomic samples. Stabilization of Tunable Diode Lasers to a frequency comb is a reliable way […]
