Recently, Opton Laser International, a supplier specializing in photonics, is currently distributing manufacturer UltraFast Innovations (UFI)'s ultra-high contrast third-order autocorrelator Tundra++. The new generation Tundra aims to characterize the temporal intensity distribution and quality of laser pulses with particularly high sensitivity.

This is to avoid the harmful effects caused by the high power of terawatt and petawatt laser pulses, which can reach 10 ^ 10 W/cm a few picoseconds or nanoseconds before the main laser pulse ²  The ionization threshold, whether through poor spontaneous amplification level emission (ASE) or uncontrolled stray pre pulse.

Thanks to the implementation of innovative concepts, Tundra++has announced the ability to measure dynamic ranges of up to 14 orders of magnitude, making it suitable for pulse contrast measurement in some of the world's most powerful femtosecond laser systems.
