Formation Mechanism of Nanostructures on the Stainless Steel Surface by Femtosecond Laser Pulses

In this paper, we report on the formation of a variety of micro/nano-metric structures on the stainless steel surfaces by single-beam direct femtosecond laser writing. Periodic microgratings of different line widths and period are fabricated on the sample surfaces. Random nanostructures are observed inside the microgratings, when laser pulses with low laser energies are applied on the samples. ...

Compact Birefringent Waveplates Photo-Induced in Silica by Femtosecond Laser

Recently, we showed that femtosecond laser induced “nanogratings” consist of thin regions with a low refractive index (Δn = −0.15), due to the formation of nanoporous silica surrounded by regions with a positive index change. In this paper, we investigate a wide range of laser parameters to achieve very high retardance within a single layer; as much as 350 nm at λ = 546 nm but also to minimize ...
