Del Mar Photonics 
Introduces Trestles Fourth Harmonic Generator
San Diego, CA, August 8, 2006 - Del Mar Photonics, Inc. introduces the Trestles 
Fourth Harmonic Generator (FHG). Trestles FHG is designed to work with 
Ti:sapphire lasers, such as the Trestles Ti:sapphire laser to provide fourth 
harmonic generation. Trestles FHG is an affordable and easy solution to 
generating pulses around 200 nm.

    Trestles FHG is available in two versions. The first version uses the third 
harmonic mixed with the fundamental wavelength to produce fourth harmonic 
generation. This option provides the fundamental, as well as the second, third 
and fourth harmonics. For input of 810 nm, 1 W, 82MHz and 50 fs, output of the 
fourth harmonic is at 203 nm, 300-400 fs and power is 3 mW. The second option 
uses two separate second harmonic generation stages to produce fourth harmonic 
generation. With input of 810 nm, 1 W, 82 MHz and 50 fs, output of the fourth 
harmonic is at 210 nm, pulse width of 500 fs and power of 10 mW.
     The Trestles FHG from Del Mar Photonics is an easily installed solution for adding functionality to any femtosecond laser system. Extended ranges will increase capabilities for research, and specific applications such as microscopy and spectroscopy.  |

Femtosecond Ti:Sapphire oscillators and amplifiers from Del Mar Photonics
Do you plan to build a femtosecond set up based on Ti:Sapphire laser?
Del Mar Photonics is please to announce several new Ti:Sapphire oscillator and amplifier products. Now Del Mar Photonics' customers can choose one of the following oscillator and amplifier options:
Femtosecond Ti:Sapphire Oscillator
1. If you already have a CW pump laser or plan to buy specific model and need only Ti:Sapphire oscillator we can offer our stand alone Ti:Sapphire lasers Trestles, that do not include pump laser and can be customized for any suitable CW pump.
Please indicate required pulse duration (standard models have 20 fs, 50 fs and 100 fs pulses) and tuning range. Let us know what kind of pump laser you have (make/model) so we can confirm what output parameters can be achieved.
2. If you do not have a pump laser and want to buy complete system we can 
offer you one of the following:
One-box system Trestles Finesse that 
include Trestles mini Ti:Sapphire oscillator and built in
DPSS pump laser
When choosing specific Trestles Finesse model please indicate required CW pump power (4W or 6W), Ti:Sapphire pulse duration and required tuning range (or tuning range, where you want to achieve maximum performance)
Tuning range can be customized at the factory by choosing one of standard or custom made optics set. Typical tuning curves for 4W CW pump laser for two standard optics sets are shown in the Trestles Finesse brochure. For example, with 4W CW pump laser and long-wave mirrors set tuning range can be extended up to 940nm. With 6W CW pump laser tuning range can be extended up to 980nm.
Femtosecond Ti:Sapphire Amplifier
1. We offer integrated oscillator/amplifier system 
Teahupoo Rider. Teahupoo Rider is a fully-integrated all-in-one-box system 
that includes Trestles Finesse oscillator 
or Buccaneer SHG diode-pumped fiber oscillator, 
pulse stretcher, regenerative amplifier pumped by 
multi kHz Nd:YAG pump laser and pulse compressor. Teahupoo Rider has a 
factory preinstalled repetition rate of 2, 5 or 10kHz and ideal for low cost 
femtosecond micromachining systems, OPA pumping, ultrafast spectroscopy and 
variety of applications in life sciences.
2. If you already have a Ti:Sapphire oscillator, we can offer you stand alone Ti:Sapphire amplifier. Two standard models are available: Wedge M multipass or Wedge R regenerative.

Each amplifier is customized to the customer's amplifier pump laser.
2. Custom Teahupoo Rider systems with a pump 
laser of your choice are also available. Depending on the required 
specifications we can recommend a pump laser and make required adjustments for 
optimum performance. 
The following specifications can be achieved:
Repetition rate: single pulses, 10 Hz up to 10kHz
Pulse duration: 100fs, 50fs, 30fs, <30fs
Pulse energy: from 100 mJ per pulse to few mJ per 
pulse
Tunability: both fixed wavelength and tunable options are available - please 
indicate required tuning range.
