What Irisiome Solutions does

Irisiome Solutions is a French photonics company founded in 2015 and headquartered at the Cité de la Photonique in Pessac, France. The firm designs and manufactures ultrafast fiber laser systems based on a proprietary pulse generation architecture that uses gain-switching combined with pulse gating electronics, as an alternative to mode-locked lasers. The company employs between 11 and 50 people and operates as a privately held, for-profit business.

The company's commercial offering is a portfolio of four configurable ultrafast fiber laser platforms — SID (compact picosecond source with fixed sub-35 ps pulses), MANNY (tunable picosecond platform from 50 ps to 1 ns), DIEGO (sub-500 fs femtosecond platform), and PEACHES (advanced platform for non-standard wavelengths and custom pulse formats). All platforms support repetition rates from 5 MHz to 2 GHz, wavelengths from 515 nm to 1560 nm, and average output power up to 30 W, and are integrated as turnkey systems combining fiber optics, pulse generation, synchronization electronics, and software control. End applications include quantum technologies (single-photon sources, QKD, synchronization), biophotonics and microscopy (STED, fluorescence, time-resolved imaging), spectroscopy and nonlinear optics (SHG, SFG, time-gated Raman), and particle accelerator synchronization.

Revenue is generated through engineering-to-order sales of laser platforms and configurations, sold direct and via a distributor network across Europe, North America, and Asia to research institutes, universities, and industrial photonics integrators. The company also operates a parallel brand, Irisiome Aesthetic, which addresses medical and aesthetic laser applications, and supports lead generation through published technical white papers, datasheets, and participation in photonics trade shows such as Laser World of Photonics 2025 in Munich. No public funding rounds, revenue figures, or enterprise customer logos are disclosed.

Core offering

Irisiome Solutions designs and manufactures ultrafast pulsed fiber laser platforms (SID, MANNY, DIEGO, PEACHES) that deliver picosecond and femtosecond pulses with tunable duration, GHz-range repetition rates and multiple wavelengths. The systems combine fiber optics, pulse gating electronics, synchronization and software control into compact, turnkey units sold to research and industrial photonics users.

Product overview

Irisiome Solutions offers a portfolio of four ultrafast fiber laser platforms: SID, MANNY, DIEGO, and PEACHES. These integrated pulsed fiber laser systems combine fiber optics, pulse generation, synchronization electronics, and software control in compact, application-ready platforms. SID provides fixed picosecond pulses at high repetition rates; MANNY offers tunable picosecond operation with adjustable pulse duration; DIEGO delivers sub-picosecond pulses for ultrashort applications; and PEACHES handles advanced wavelengths and custom pulse formats. All platforms support repetition rates from 5 MHz to 2 GHz and wavelengths spanning from 515 nm to 1560 nm with power up to 30 W.
