With the support of the Region Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and BPI France, LASER METROLOGIE creates the High Power and Energy Laser Radiometry
Center of Annecy ('Centre Annécien de Radiométrie des fortes puissances et énergies Laser'). The center is equipped with two cw lasers:
a 2kW "TruFlow " laser at 10.6 µm and an 8kW "TruDisk " at 1.030 µm. These two lasers will be
used to perform calibrations up to 8 kW for aeronautical field where high power lasers are used at these both wavelengths.
Moreover, the automotive industry actors will have a French reference institute to relate their power meters to international Standards.
Our 8 kW TruDisk laser will allow to simulate the 20 kJ that correspond to the energy of each of the 176 nanosecond pulsed
laser beams of Laser MegaJoule (LMJ) at CEA CESTA.
LASER METROLOGY has designed the electrically calibrated calorimeter used as primary standard for LMJ Radiometry.
It was the subject of 2 patents in co-ownership with the CEA.
The principle of the LMJ Standard calorimeter has been reproduced to design a new standard calorimeter for the Radiometry Center of Annecy
which allow 2 kW direct calibration with an absolute accuracy of about 1%. The principle is then different from the other European
laser power standard which consists of the 1mW cryogenic standard calorimeter and a complex traceability chain to reach
high power calibrations.

LASER METROLOGY designs and implements complex digital machines dedicated to
the control and the production of small and large series. For a potentially large market, LASER METROLOGY
can provide specific in-house mass-producing production, implementing the machine from its own funds:
