This paper introduces and discusses the main aspects of ultrashort laser pulse filamentation in various transparent media such as air (gases), transparent solids and liquids. The …
So far, nanostructuring of hard optical crystals has been exclusively limited to their surface, as stress-induced crack formation and propagation render high-precision volume processes …
Research into the three-dimensional nanostructuring of photopolymers by ultrashort laser pulses has seen immense growth over the last decade. In this paper, we review the basic …
Laser direct writing is a widely employed technique for 3D, contactless, and fast functionalization of dielectrics. Its success mainly originates from the utilization of ultrashort …
Materials irradiated with multiple femtosecond laser pulses in subablation conditions are observed to develop various types of self-assembled morphologies that range from …
The interaction of ultra-fast sub-picosecond laser pulses with solids is a very broad area of research. The boundaries for research fields covered by this review are defined as follows. A …
