Laser World of Photonics 2025 product and vendor preview
A look ahead at some of the products and vendors that will be on show from the record-breaking 1,350 exhibitors at this year’s Laser World of Photonics in Munich.
Hamamatsu Photonics
LCOS-SLM optical phase modulator
Hamamatsu Photonics LCOS-SLM is an optical phase modulator designed to control the phase of the laser beam by sandwiching liquid crystals between a CMOS chip and a transparent electrode deposited on a glass substrate. Digital images output from PCs are converted into analogue signals by a dedicated drive circuit before voltage is applied to pixel electrodes on the CMOS chip. The liquid crystals’ refractive index is then changed by tilting their molecules with the voltage. (Booth A3.311)
Instrument Systems

(Booth B1.273)
Coher Sense
Laser World of Photonics: Hall A3, Booth 531
Measuring lasers accurately is just as complicated and complex as it sounds – this will change with LASER 2025!
In Munich, Coher Sense launches the KISA, a miniaturised polarimetric optical interferometer that characterises power, wavelength and bandwidth – simultaneously, on one screen, in one tiny device. Our patented KISA technology makes laser measurement uncomplicated and accessible.
Existing solutions are bulky, slow and expensive. KISAs provide power, wavelength and bandwidth at 10+ kHz data rate, all from the palm of your hand. KISAs are easy to use and built for both lab environments and integration into larger systems. We enable new markets and applications where traditional solutions are too complex, too large, too power-hungry or too costly. Performance, efficiency and accessibility enable the success of our OEM partners, researchers and industrial users.
A customer called it “the Multimeter for Lasers” and we embrace that vision. Curious? Swing by hall A3, booth 531.
