With the Best Measuring Instruments, One Can Measure What No One Could Measure Before.

20 Years Menlo Systems – 20 Years Precision in Photonics

More than once, seemingly tiny differences between measurement and theory have led to major advances in fundamental knowledge. The emergence of modern science itself is closely linked to the art of accurate measurement. Prof. Hänsch, Dr. Holzwarth, and Dr. Mei founded the Menlo Systems GmbH in 2001 with the vision to develop the most accurate instruments and techniques for the optical spectroscopy and to bring them to the market.

As the pioneer of the optical frequency comb and femtosecond fiber lasers, Menlo Systems has worked with its customers to shape and continually expand the applications of frequency combs in the early years. 20 years after, optical frequency combs constitute the enabling technology for the quantum technologies and for quantum computers, as well as for numerous high precision metrology applications.

In metrology institutes worldwide, they are the gold standard. Ultra stable lasers serving as optical reference systems, and terahertz spectroscopy systems complete the product portfolio and allow users to achieve highest precision in photonics. All products are manufactured at the headquarters in Martinsried near Munich. Menlo Systems' sales offices in the US, in China, and in Japan, and a global distributor network guarantee close relations to customers during and after the sales process at any time and place. The 20th company anniversary and a steadily growing business are confirmation that the vision of our founders became reality.
