CAPELLA is a Light-Field Synthesizer that enables synthesis and sub-femtosecond control of super-octave light transients.

Built around UFI's expertise in ultra-broadband chirped-mirror technology, CAPELLA combines multiple spectral channels with precise phase control to generate single-cycle and sub-cycle waveforms — opening a new frontier in attosecond physics, strong-field laser-matter interaction, and electron-photon coherent control.

Key Product Features

  • Super-octave spectral coverage
  • Sub-femtosecond temporal control of light field
  • Multi-channel coherent combination with precise relative-phase control
  • Active CEP and inter-channel-phase stabilization
  • Compatible with high-harmonic-generation experiments
  • Modular design — channels tailored to customer's available driver wavelengths

Applications

  • Attosecond pulse generation and metrology
  • Strong-field photoionization control
  • Lightwave electronics
  • Sub-cycle nonlinear spectroscopy
  • Coherent control experiments

Developed at the Max-Planck-Institute of Quantum Optics. UFI is a spin-off from LMU Munich and the Max Planck Society.
