We call OCT with speeds of more than 1.000.000 axial scans per second MHz-OCT. These unprecedented speeds require not only an extremely fast swept laser, such as our FDML products, but also rely on perfect synchronization, powerful data processing and other system technologies. Read more...

Fourier-domain mode-locking (FDML) is a novel laser operation scheme. In FDML, the cavity round-trip time is synchronized to the wavelength-tunable filter driving signal. In this way, FDML overcomes the typical speed limitations of other wavelength-swept laser concepts. Read more...

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noncontact, three-dimensional imaging modality. Based on broadband light sources, interferometric detection, and confocal gating, OCT provides cross-sectional images with a resolution of a few microns. Read more...

The Optores Megahertz system (OMES) is a complete OCT imaging solution that combines Optores' groundbreaking FDML laser and GPU processing technology to a turnkey research OCT system. With speeds beyond of 1.5 MHz, OMES provides continuous "4D" video-rate OCT to visualize three-dimensional sample structure in real time.

Each OCT system comes with a customizable 3D-scanning sample arm head. A microscope-like stand provides axial travel for easy focusing. OMES are turnkey systems that are fully functional right out of the box while providing true research-grade access to raw data when needed

Optores offers a range of custom synchronization and pulse generator elements. Synchronization of wavelength-swept lasers, data acquisition and other components can be challenging. Read more....

Optores proudly introduces OGOP – the Optores GPU OCT Processing library, an ultra-fast and highly reliable processing library for optical coherence tomography (OCT) data. Based on graphic-processing unit (GPU) optimized code, OGOP enables real-time processing with sustained throughput of several gigabytes per second.Read more...

Optores introduces the worlds first swept laser source with a sweep rate of up to 1.5 MHz for research applications. Available at 1060 nm, 1310 nm and 1550 nm center wavelengths, the Optores swept source is based on all-fiber Fourier-domain mode-locked (FDML) laser technology. Designed for record speed, the Optores swept laser also features long coherence lengths and very high output powers beyond 100 mW. Read more...
