The EU-funded international project NETLAS (NExt generation of Tuneable LASers for optical coherence tomography) is a project to educate and support industry and innovation leaders as well as 15 young scientists. Our group is part of this project and provides two of the fifteen young scientists. Within the project duration, the young scientists will travel through different research institutions within the EU, where they will attend training courses and seminars on tunable lasers for optical coherence tomography. In addition, they will work in their "home groups" on concrete realizations of laser light sources. The tasks of the young scientists from our group are:
- development of a new FDML laser with a central wavelength of 800nm
- Development of an ultra-wideband FDML laser
- Application of the newly developed lasers in ophthalmic OCT
