Chromacity 1280 Femtosecond Laser
1280 nm; Pulse Energy 300 pJ; Repetition Rate 100 MHz; Pulse Duration 80 fs; Output Power ≤30 mW
The Chromacity 1280 femtosecond laser generates femtosecond pulses, with a fiber delivery output, to drive advances in test and measurement applications within the semiconductor industry.
While operating at 1280 nm, Chromacity’s ultrafast laser can also generate 80 fs pulses across the 1250 nm to 1310 nm wavelength range, and combined with excellent beam quality, the Chromacity 1280 has scope to broaden fundamental research and material characterization capabilities.
The 1280 nm laser inherits Chromacity’s novel laser design architecture and patented manufacturing expertise to develop a high-performance and truly stable light source, which is operationally ready with minimal set-up time.
Within the range of typical applications for this laser, laser scanning and optoelectronic imaging of integrated circuits is crucial towards optimal semiconductor failure analysis, at a time when the industry faces global chip shortages. With seamless integration into Laser Assisted Device Alteration (LADA) platforms, Chromacity’s robust 1280 nm laser source can help determine soft defect localization, using near-IR microscopy techniques including (2P-LADA).
Further applications include Two-Photon Laser Assisted Device Alteration (2P-LADA), a high-resolution imaging technique which exploits two-photon absorption (TPA) to deliver precise three-dimensional localization of the photocarriers, injected by the TPA process, to accurately locate and characterize failures, with optimum spatial and temporal performance.
Similarly, the Two-Photon Optical Beam Induced Current (TOBIC) technique is another laser-scanning method for imaging integrated circuits. This technique uses ultrashort-pulse lasers to induce a photocurrent which is subsequently mapped to generate an image. TOBIC imaging occurs around 1250 nm to 1550 nm, where the beam is easily transmitted through the silicon band gap.

Chromacity Auskerry/Haskeir Tunable IR Laser Sources / OPOs
1.4-12 µm; Output Power 20-850 mW; Repetition Frequency 100, 200 MHz; Pulse Duration 1-5 ps; Beam Diameter 1-6 mm
Chromacity has developed a range of tunable laser sources which span the short to long IR wavelength regions.
The Chromacity Auskerry (formerly the Near-IR OPO) is Chromacity’s flagship tunable optical parametric oscillator (OPO) which generates light across 1.4 µm – 4.2 µm (7150 cm-1– 2400 cm-1). The Chromacity Auskerry tunable laser source can be integrated into an FTIR spectrometer, providing the ability to interrogate multiple chemical signatures in real time (at a high resolution). It has a broad bandwidth across the 3µm-3.5µm to quantify gases such as of methane, ethane and benzene in a single measurement with resolutions of 0.05cm-1. The high powers of the Chromacity Auskerry have demonstrated open-path stand-off detection measurements beyond 100m.
The Chromacity Haskeir (formerly the Mid-IR OPO) is powered by a new generation of non-linear crystals which generate broad bandwidth coherent light across the long wavelength regions between 4.5 µm and 12 µm (2200 cm-1 to 850 cm-1). Spectroscopy across the fingerprint regime provides that ability to characterize volatile organic compounds with complex chemical signatures, and the high brightness of the Chromacity Haskeir OPO across 4.5 to 12µm can be used in a number of these set-ups. It can also be used to characterize and differentiate between compounds, such as VX and Sarin, as well as pharmaceutical powders such as aspirin and ibuprofen.
Both picosecond OPOs deliver high power, broad band coherent light and are optically pumped by Chromacity’s high-power Chromacity 1040 femtosecond laser, which is fully integrated into the optical head to maximize stability and reduce the overall system footprint. Fiber delivery capability reinforces the inherent stability of Chromacity’s OPO systems and seamless OEM integration for industrial applications.
Chromacity is the first laser manufacturer to remotely install ultrafast OPOs. Patent protected manufacturing and design processes have driven Chromacity to build truly robust and affordable OPO systems with drop-ship capability and plug & play functionality.
With a wealth of expertise in optical parametric oscillator technology, non-linear optics and optical fiber delivery, the Chromacity team are able to consider a wide range of options to help meet your requirements. If you have a specific request, please don’t hesitate to contact AMS Technologies.
