Home   Company   Overview   Management team   Board of directors   Partners   Careers   Products   Technology   News   Contact us EOLITE Systems has been launched in 2004 to provide new photonic solutions in instrumentation and laser systems to the scientific and industrial communities. Founded by Philippe Metivier and François Salin, EOLITE Systems has build up a solid know-how in Q-switched fiber lasers and has established strong links with Bordeaux University and several high ranked European Universities. The company has developed original and patented solutions to produce short polarized laser pulses with very excellent beam quality. New technologies such as the rod type fiber were introduced to reach high average power frequency tunable pulsed fiber lasers. These important developments enabled for the first time to produce high power harmonics (green and UV) and makes EOLITE to be the Pionners in this field. EOLITE Systems is now located in Pessac France (near Bordeaux) and develops its activity in a brand new building of 1.200 square meters with clean rooms dedicated to laser productions. This production facility is dimensioned to produce over 500 EOLITE high power fiber lasers per year.
