The remote point photonic sensing is established as an efficient environmental detection
approach which offers a unique potential and advantageous operational characteristics. The …

This chapter deals with the laser-based fabrication of surface structures by ablative material
removal. Only microstructures with typical dimensions ranging from 100 to 1 mm are treated …

The ablation of materials by intense laser pulses enables a range of direct materials
processing methods. Pulsed laser deposition achieves even epitaxial growth of complex …

Over the last years a revolution has occurred in our ability to produce high power and
extremely high intensity pulses using more and more compact laser systems. The key …
