Dr. Jeannette Kemmer, from Menlo Systems GmbH

In my talk I will introduce the products and services of Menlo Systems. Our company, a spin-off from the Max-Planck-Institute of Quantum Optics, is known for its Nobel Prize winning optical frequency comb technology. Our core technology originates in stabilized lasers for optical frequency comb generation, serving applications such as time and frequency metrology, high-resolution spectroscopy, Lidar, astronomy, or space borne metrology.

The timing and synchronization systems provide perfect options for large-scale facilities such as geodetic observatories or particle accelerators. The ultrastable lasers enable complete systems for optical clock applications, and serve applications where pure optical signals are required. The terahertz time-domain spectrometers serve applications in spectroscopy and quality control. The femtosecond fiber lasers based on our patented figure 9® all-PM fiber design technology offer excellent stability and low-noise operation. Besides being unique seed lasers for above instruments, the lasers as stand-alone units find applications in diverse markets in life sciences, 3D printing and additive manufacturing, in material scribing or cutting, and in research and development.

Apart from complete solutions we also offer stabilization electronics, add-ons for metrology, and photodetectors for various applications.
In my talk I will focus on femtosecond fiber lasers, timing and synchronization systems, as well as terahertz time-domain spectrometers with a special focus on applications.
