## Description

LICOS Munich GmbH develops compact, high-brilliance X-ray and gamma-ray quantum light sources for research and industrial applications. The company aims to make tunable, synchrotron-like radiation accessible to science, industry, and healthcare, offering an alternative between conventional X-ray tubes and large research facilities. Its technology grew from more than 15 years of research in X-ray and laser quantum physics, combining expertise in inverse Compton scattering, high-power laser cavities, and quantitative physics modelling and design.

LICOS sources produce X-ray and gamma beams when high-energy electrons collide with powerful laser photons. This process, known as inverse Compton scattering, enables brilliant, monochromatic beams in a compact format. The systems are designed for tunable photon energies from soft X-rays to the gamma range, scalable integration with laser and electron accelerator systems, and energy-efficient operation through reuse of laser pulses in an optical cavity.

Potential applications include nuclear physics research, laser-fusion target characterisation, advanced chip inspection at the nanometre scale, and next-generation medical therapy.
