Second and third harmonic (SH and TH) generators are used for doubling and tripling of optical frequency for a wide range of input wavelengths produced by various ultrafast laser sources. The sources may be titanium-sapphire femtosecond lasers (Ti:S, 700-1000 nm), various ultrafast solid-state and fiber lasers around 1030-1064 nm region, chromium-forsterite oscillators (Cr:F, 1230-1270 nm), as well as other ultra-short pulse sources including parametric light conversion systems. The principle of operation is based on second harmonic generation in a non-linear crystal with phase-matching technique and sum frequency generation approach for third harmonic output. The units provide highly efficient stable output with good beam quality and little pulse broadening in fs scale.
The models are subdivided into two main branches: the ATsG-O-W for usage with ultrafast oscillators (multi-MHz rep. rates with nJ-level output) and the ATsG-A-W with increased input aperture and modified layout for usage with amplifier systems (single-shot to several MHz, uJ- and mJ-level output). The "W" in the model name takes on the exact central wavelength value for a certain model, e.g. the ATsG-O-1250 (i.e. designed for an oscillator with ~1250 nm output).
