Hub of Application Laboratories for Equipment Assessment in Laser Based Manufacturing (APPOLO)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

During more than 50 years of the laser existence, they have been proved as the unique tool for diverse material processing application. New application ideas, coming from universities and research institutions, are usually implemented by spin-off companies with limited resources for market penetration. Research laboratories are using universal laser tools, while effective and low-cost production r ...

Ultrafast Lasers with Radial and Azimuthal Polarizations for High-efficiency Micro-machining Applications (Ultrafast_RAZipol)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

High-precision laser micro-machining has delivered a important impact in daily life, hence its benefits and usefulness can easily be taken for granted. For example in the manufacture of smart phones, i-tablets, etc, high-precision laser micro-machining is essential to produce some of the key features we use in these devices. In the car industry it is has been shown that diesel nozzles produced wit ...

Integrated disruptive componentS for 2um fibre LAsers (ISLA)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

2-micron fibre laser technology has the potential to open a whole new area of ICT & industrial applications. The well-known power scaling advantages, from increased core size & higher non-linear thresholds, offer a tenfold increase in "raw power" compared with current 1-micron technology. Simultaneously, a host of applications specific to this almost unexplored region of the eye-safe spectrum beco ...

High Brightness COnical REfraction Lasers (HICORE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

A fundamental property of lasers is the ability to propagate and be focused to very small spots with little divergence, termed beam quality. The ability to achieve high power low divergence operation (high brightness) is of paramount importance for many applications, both existing and potential, of laser devices. Effective ways to scale output power without compromising beam quality are limited ...

Leadership in Fiber Technology (LIFT)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2013,

The LIFT project will establish international leadership for Europe in the science, application and production technologies for material processing by fibre lasers through the development of innovative laser sources. Major advances beyond the state of the art are planned: The cold-ablation fibre laser, based on ultra-short pulses, will open an entirely new market (100 mill.€ p.a.) for laser proces ...

COMPACT ULTRAFAST LASER SOURCES BASED ON NOVEL QUANTUM DOT STRUCTURES (FAST-DOT)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

FAST-DOT aims to implement a new range of ultrafast quantum-dot lasers for critical bio-medical applications. This project will develop portable, low-cost, reliable, highly efficient ultrashort pulse and ultra-broadband tuneable laser sources. The key technical innovation – quantum dots (QDs) - are based on novel semiconductor nanostructure clusters which demonstrate remarkable new photonic prope ...

High-power, low-noise, ultrafast tunable laser sources using supercontinuum generation (UltraTune)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

This proposal aims to research and develop a novel tunable ultrafast pulse laser source for use in biomedical applications. Covering the wavelength range from 400 nm to over 1650 nm, and delivering compressed pulses as short as sub-30 fs, the realisation of such a laser source will advance the state-of-the-art by achieving the combination of two key features, high-power and low-noise, which is not ...
