From laser chips to complete systems – Ferdinand-Braun-Institut at Laser World of Photonics

At the Munich trade fair, the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut will once again demonstrate its comprehensive expertise in the field of diode lasers – from design and chip development to ready-to-use modules and prototypes. More than 20 presentations at the accompanying CLEO Europe conference (June 23-27, 2025) will provide in-depth insights into current research and development results.
