Application Notes
Supercontinuum Laser for STED Microscopy
“Stimulated emission depletion (STED) fluorescence is a powerful method in microscopy allowing sub-diffraction-limited resolution. Dominik Wildanger and colleagues at the Department of NanoBiophotonics, Max-Planck Institute, Goettingen, Germany, using a single supercontinuum fibre laser (the SC450-PP-HE from Fianium) have reported imaging of dense nanoparticles and of the microtubular network of mammalian cells with a spatial resolution of 30-50nm in the focal plane – a factor of 9 times beyond the diffraction limit.”

Thin-film PV Scribing Using a High-Energy Picosecond Pulsed Fiber Laser
“Thin-film photovoltaic (PV) fabrication is a demanding industrial process. For these devices to be cost-competitive, high-throughput and quality must be coupled with low startup and maintenance cost. Maintenance-free high-energy picosecond fiber lasers offer a means to produce high quality P1, P2, and P3 scribes of thin-film PV devices at rates exceeding 5000 mm/s and with a relatively low cost of ownership.”
