The Femtosecond Kit FemtoStart from Del Mar Ventures represent an
excellent compromise between time and cost. Containing all necessary
optical and mechanical elements together with a thorough instruction,
it enables the user to achieve stable femtosecond lasing after a
short period of time. FemtoStart kit can be used as introductory
system in colleges and universities for undergraduate and graduate
training.
FemtoStart Kit is an excellent tool for research groups who would
like to learn more about opportunities of using femtosecond laser
pulses in a variety of applications including physics, chemistry,
biochemistry, biology, new material research, semiconductor physics
and optical communications, space research and medicine.

Basic FemtoStart Kit's configuration correspond to 100, 50 or 20
femtosecond Ti : sapphire lasers. Optional configurations are also
possible. FemtoStart kit has several advantages compared to fixed
setups; e.g. repetition rates may be varied from 70 to 140 MHz. We
recommend 5 W diode pumped solid state (DPSS) laser (Verdi from
Coherent or Millenia from Spectra-Physics) as a pumping source,
however any Ar-ion laser or diode-pumped solid-state laser with 3 –5W
output power will do the job.
