Abstract

Menhir Photonics’ robust and reliable ultra low-noise ultrafast seeders are now a reference at 1.5 um. At 1030 nm, we present a flexible concept using our new MENHIR-1030 at 160 MHz together with nearly lossless resonant EOM pulse-picking to serve as ultra-low noise seeder for amplifier systems requiring 80 MHz or 40 MHz repetition rate. We provide >1 nJ of pulse energy while maintaining the high robustness and compactness of a high repetition rate system, combined with state-of-the art low jitter. The passively stable MENHIR-1030 can be actively stabilized for utmost stability in amplifier applications. We will review the laser's key parameters with our innovative concept and details on key applications from our customers such as enhancement cavity pumping and high-power amplification.
