About Us - Company History

VENTEON Laser Technologies GmbH was founded in 2008 and resumes the successful VENTEON femtosecond laser branch of Nanolayers Optical Coatings GmbH as an independent company. The new product portfolio covers leading-edge femtosecond laser oscillators, few-cycle pulse characterization tools, ultrafast optics, accessories and custom-designed solutions.

The VENTEON product line exclusively features Nanolayers NANEO optics such as octave-spanning dispersion compensating mirror pairs and broadband dispersion balanced beamsplitters, manufactured with Ion Beam Sputtering (IBS) for superior performance and recognized as a market leader in the ultrafast optics community. These optics are distributed exclusively by VENTEON Laser Technologies together with a comprehensive consulting and service.

This synergy combined with the expertise in ultrafast physics enables VENTEON Laser Technologies to offer not only high performance products but overall solutions in ultrafast applications ranging from generation and characterization of femtosecond pulses, pulse compression products and consulting as well as amplification and special custom-designed implementations to satisfy your needs!
