SuperK EXTREME Supercontinuum Lasers

The range of SuperK EXTREME supercontinuum white light lasers is broad as a lamp and bright as a laser. They deliver high brightness diffraction-limited light in the entire 410-2400 nm region. Add one of our computer-controlled filters to turn the SuperK into an ultra-tunable laser. Their lasers are maintenance-free and the full fiber monolithic architecture ensures excellent reliability and a lifetime of thousands of hours.

The SuperK EXTREME series is based on NKT Photonics’ world-renowned Crystal Fibre technology that has reliably delivered supercontinuum to all fields for over 15 years.

Operation is simple and functions can be changed on-the-fly without powering down the system. The SuperK EXTREME series provides high power and an exceptional lifetime together with the highest of safety standards.
