Company

SLF Svenska Laserfabriken (Eng: Swedish Laser Factory) started as a spin-out company from KTH. SLF is committed to being the leading center for nonlinear optics and lasers. We produce periodically poled KTP crystal (PPKTP) and devices based on PPKTP. We offer both standard and custom PPKTP to meet all needs our customers might have.
Our team consists of highly skilled engineers specialised in nonlinear optics and lasers, all with PhD degrees in the field. We posses unique know-how in production of PPKTP which allows us to produce some of the largest aperture periodically poled crystals on the market and with the shortest periods.
