摘要

Cold atoms research has synergistically led to the development of new laser tools, in particular tunable diode laser technology and fiber combs that are ideally matched to each other. As one would think that such a high-end technology requirements of laser-cooled atoms are unique, given the exquisite lab-bound nature of the research topic, the vastly expanding cold atom field has generated enough of a technology surge for the development of mature laser products. They now find their usage in the other extreme end of current research, namely the latest generation of astronomical telescopes. As cold matter research is trying to unravel secrets of the early universe, is also its „tooling“ that will become the backbone for adaptive optics implementation using laser guide stars to cope with the atmospheric issues of the same endeavor of understanding for example star formation.

In the talk I will also try to give an insight into TOPTICA, a customer-oriented and boot-strapping high-tech company, which might inspire joint technology initiatives in the future.
