APE celebrates its birthday!
November 14th, 2024Exactly 32 years ago, APE was founded by Jan Popien, Edlef Buettner, and Thomas Lindemann. Together, they invented the first commercially available autocorrelator, making it possible to measure the shortest light pulses. We didn’t stop with our first product. Today, we offer over 30 products, from spectrometers to harmonic generators and from pulse compressors to quantum-dot single-photon sources.Here at APE, we’re incredibly proud of the meaningful impact we’ve made in science, working alongside the world’s leading laser manufacturers and top...
Did you know? Deeper Insight in Autocorrelation Measurements …
November 5th, 2024In their latest research, Torben Fiehler, Clara Saraceno, Günter Steinmeyer, and Ulrich Wittrock show in detail how you can prevent misinterpretations of autocorrelation measurements. Spectrally broad laser radiation from continuous wave (cw) lasers can produce second-order autocorrelation traces that closely resemble those of mode-locked lasers. By using the APE pulseCheck autocorrelator, the authors compared measured autocorrelations and calculations of a mode-locked Ti:Sa laser with a spectrally broad, monolithic cw Ti:Sa laser, devising a new method to safeguard against autocorrelation...
From Berlin to the World
October 29th, 2024Once again this year, we had the pleasure of welcoming our representatives from around the world to our headquarters in Berlin, Germany.Through a series of in-depth presentations and hands-on workshops led by our experts, we expanded our knowledge of ultrafast lasers.It was great to present our technologies on a personal level to deepen the understanding of ultrafast laser diagnostics, pulse management and laser conversion. We also discussed various applications and go-to-market strategies to strengthen our relationship for the long...
New Publication with APE’s Signal Processing Unit
October 14th, 2024Congratulations! We are pleased to announce the fresh publication of the paper, "Cell sorting based on pulse shapes from angle resolved detection of scattered light," in Communications Biology. This research, authored by Daniel Kage, Andrej Eirich, Kerstin Heinrich, Jenny Kirsch, Jan Popien, Alexander Wolf, Konrad v. Volkmann, Hyun-Dong Chang, and Toralf Kaiser, introduces an innovative flow cytometry technology that leverages scattered light for label-free cell analysis and sorting, offering a promising alternative to traditional fluorescence-based methods. The applied signal processing...
