Introduction

ARGO: UV to Mid-IR Tunable OPA laser suite for advanced pump-probe spectroscopy

High-power ultrafast laser suite offering market-leading conversion efficiency at short pulses.

ARGO is our high-power widely tunable, multi-color OPA (optical parametric amplifier) laser suite capable of delivering sub-50-fs pulses with market-leading conversion efficiency. Combining our advanced OPCPA technology with harmonic generation conversion stages, the system delivers wavelengths from deep-UV (200 nm) to mid-IR (16.2 µm). Our new Class 5 Bridge, an IoT-enabled modular control system, connects multiple ARGO units to build advanced pump-probe setups.
