The cluster has succeeded in establishing a brand name for the Lithuania laser industry in the field of scientific lasers and their use in the advanced instrumentation. Thanks to the cluster networking and marketing efforts the Lithuanian lasers have been installed in some 80 universities of the Top100 universities globally. Photonics and laser technology has become one of the smart specialization priorities supported by the EU funds. The annual CAGR of the cluster members is more than 10%, and the overall sales amount to 100 MEUR in the sector which has created 1000 high-paid jobs clustered within 10 sq. km around the centre of Vilnius.
The cluster can provide partnerts with access to advanced technologies and key competencies in the following areas:
- High peak power laser systems. TW & PW lasers;
- Short & ultrashort pulse generation & amplification;
- Tunable nonlinear devices (OPO, OPA, etc.);
- Nonlinear spectroscopy;
- Microfabrication: processes & workstations;
- Fast high voltage electronics;
- High power electronics;
- Optics, mechanics & electronics components.
