Connecting laser research infrastructures across Europe
Laserlab-Europe AISBL brings together 47 leading laser research infrastructures in 22 European countries. The association is committed to facilitating the development of advanced lasers and laser-based technologies in Europe. The majority of the members provides open access to their facilities to international scientists.
Serving users from academia, industry and medical centres
Promoting scientific excellence in laser-based research
Use our facilities
The majority of our members offers transnational access to top-quality laser research facilities and to a large variety of inter-disciplinary research. Scientists and industry can take part in the access programme free of charge, including travel and accommodation.
