TOPTICA wins 2025 Innovation Award for Plug-and-Play Femtosecond Laser System in Biophotonics
FemtoFiber ultra FD recognized for revolutionizing multi-photon microscopy with automated femtosecond fiber coupling
(PresseBox) - TOPTICA was honored with the prestigious 2025 Laser World of Photonics Innovation Award in the Biophotonics and Medical Engineering category for its revolutionary FemtoFiber ultra FD laser system.
Developed to simplify multi-photon microscopy, this compact platform offers turnkey femtosecond beam delivery via optical fiber – enhancing safety and operational ease in modern bioimaging labs.
The FemtoFiber ultra FD provides robust, hands-free femtosecond laser delivery using hollow-core fiber technology combined with TOPTICA’s proprietary COOLAC auto-alignment system. Originally developed for the iChrome fluorescence microscopy platform, COOLAC now brings automated fiber coupling to the ultrafast regime – making multi-photon imaging faster, safer, and more accessible.
“Our goal was to remove complexity from high-performance imaging,” said Luisa Hofmann, Product Manager Biophotonics & Materials at TOPTICA. “With the FemtoFiber ultra FD, users can focus on their science – not on beam paths.”
The award was presented by Europa Science Ltd and the Laser World of Photonics jury, recognizing the system’s impact on both clinical and research imaging environments. With support for popular wavelengths (780/920/1050 nm), the FemtoFiber ultra FD is compatible with common fluorophores and optimized for deep-tissue imaging and nonlinear excitation techniques.
TOPTICA has been developing and manufacturing high-end laser systems for scientific and industrial applications for more than 25 years.
