NEW Legend Elite Products!

Legend Elite Duo-HP Systems For even higher power, the new Legend Elite Duo-HP systems offer average powers to >15W. This is achieved with enhanced, TE-cooling of the rods - no cryo-cooling is required, maximizing simplicity and affordability. This allows the power of up to two Evolution pump lasers to be effectively utilized while still maintaining the advantages - performance, stability and reliability - of a Legend Elite platform. In addition, multiple, user-adjustable repetition rates from 1 to 10kHz are available on Duo-HP systems. Legend Elite CEP For demanding applications such as attosecond or HHG studies, we now offer Carrier-Envelope Phase (CEP) stabilization of the Legend Elite amplifier. The Legend Elite CEP amplifier employs a proprietary stabilization technique and makes full use of the unique advantages of the low noise Verdi oscillator pump laser and the Micra CEP, wide bandwidth ultrafast oscillator.

Legend Elite Series

• Simple thermo-electric rod-cooling enables average power to >15W
• E-2 Engine, advanced regenerative amplifier platform for unsurpassed performance and reliability
• Thermally stabilization for long-term environmental stability
• Ready for seeding with Micra, Mantis, Vitesse or Mira oscillators for maximum flexibility and stability

The Legend Elite Family.

This family of Ti:sapphire amplifiers has become the best selling currently on the market and sets the benchmark for stability and performance. Featuring an integrated Evolution pump laser and the thermally-stabilized, E-2 Engine regenerative amplifier platform in a single, compact footprint, the Legend Elite family exhibits rock-solid stability and superior performance compared to other designs that require multiple 'boxes.' When coupled with opto-mechanical components developed for our industrial grade Libra amplifiers, this design sets the leading level of stability.

With multiple models that can operate from 2 picoseconds to <25 femtoseconds, and with pulse energies to >10 mJ (two pump lasers) there is a Legend Elite version for your amplifier application.

At the heart of every model is our E-2 Engine, the regenerative amplifier reliably offering unsurpassed energy, efficiency, and beam quality enabled by improvements in the cavity design, pumping configuration and optical components.

All Legend Elite Duo models employ an additional, single-pass power amplifier, also TE-cooled. The standard pump laser is a single, higher power, Evolution-HE. This design approach offers a combination of energy, efficiency and beam quality un-matched by competing amplifier systems.

For applications where the shortest pulses are required, Coherent offers the unique Legend Elite USX systems. The key to their performance is our proprietary BandMax technology. This enables the USX models to sustain an amplified bandwidth that provides the shortest pulses guaranteed from a commercial regenerative amplifier.
