  • Negative Group Delay Dispersion as Low as -10,000fs2 with Minimal Third Order Dispersion
  • Positive Group Delay Dispersion as High as 4000 fs2 with Minimal Third Order Dispersion
  • Compatible with UV, VIS, and IR Ultrafast Lasers

The Variable Ultrafast Pulse Compressor and Stretcher Kit provides an easy, low-cost framework for a customizable ultrafast dispersive system. This kit includes the necessary optomechanics and requires user selected dispersion compensating mirrors depending on the application. Designed to be easily aligned and bidirectional with precision mounting hardware, options are available to cover most common ultrafast laser lines including Ti:Sapphire, Yb-doped Fiber Lasers, UV, and Mid-IR Lasers. Once aligned, the Variable Ultrafast Compressor and Stretcher Kit is portable and can be shared among multiple laser setups serving as a drop-in solution for variable dispersion compensation. This kit is ideal for dispersion compensation and pulse recompression in applications such as multi-photon microscopy and ultrafast micro-machining.
