THORA 2050 redefines ultrafast laser performance — merging medical-grade stability, industrial Thulium-fiber pumping, and next-gen CPA architecture.
THORA 2050 is the world’s most powerful ultrafast Ho:YLF laser platform, delivering pulse energies up to 60 mJ at 2050 nm with sub-3 ps duration. Designed in cooperation with the Max-Born-Institute in Berlin, the THORA 2050 architecture combines medical-grade seed stability, industrial-grade Thulium pumping, and an innovative high-efficiency CPA layout — optimized for ultrafast performance, modularity, and long-term reliability.
Whether you’re driving OPCPA at 5 microns, pushing mid-IR HHG, or initiating ultrafast plasma interactions, THORA 2050 sets a new threshold in high-energy ultrafast laser design.
What sets THORA apart is its unique combination of technologies and its groundbreaking combination of wavelength and energy, achieving unparalleled interaction with materials and tissues due to the 2050 nm wavelength‘s superior absorption characteristics.
Leveraging a medical-grade seed-laser architecture, THORA 2050 integrates a Ho:YLF regenerative amplifier, perfected over two decades of development at Max-Born-Institute (MBI) in Berlin, to ensure unmatched stability and precision. Powered by industrial-grade Thulium fiber pump lasers, and optional Ho:YLF booster stages, this system delivers up to 60 mJ pulse energy. At the heart of THORA 2050 is its innovative chirped-pulse amplifier design, maximizing energy efficiency and pulse control, and delivering remarkably short < 3 ps pulses. THORA 2050 sets a new standard in high-energy picosecond lasers, pushing the boundaries of mid-IR laser technology.
