Single-Layer Subwavelength Femtosecond-Laser-Induced Confined Nanocrystallization in Multistack Dielectrics

Yves Bellouard, Ruben Ricca

We demonstrate extreme laser-induced modification confinement in a stack of dielectric layers, along the optical axis, without the use of tight focusing. Specifically, we show that an aperiodic distribution of layer thicknesses can effectively lead to the ...

Control of intermetallics in the interface in directed energy deposition of titanium on stainless steel 316L

Di Cui

Application of a single metal or alloy is often restricted by its properties from optimal combination of performance and cost. Therefore, there is a vast need of joining dissimilar metals for various applications in biomedical, aerospace, automobile and ma ...

On the interaction of femtosecond laser pulses with layered dielectric materials

Ruben Ricca

Materials properties are strictly dependent on their microstructure. The internal symmetries and the disposition of the constituting atoms of a material, which depend on its crystallographic structure, greatly affect its response to mechanical, electromagn ...

Few-femtosecond resolved imaging of laser-driven nanoplasma expansion

Matthias Bucher, Christoph Bostedt

The free expansion of a planar plasma surface is a fundamental non-equilibrium process relevant for various fields but as-yet experimentally still difficult to capture. The significance of the associated spatiotemporal plasma motion ranges from astrophysic ...

Effect of femtosecond laser-induced high pressure on fused silica polymorphism

Arunkrishnan Radhakrishnan

High-pressure studies in silica are of great interest to earth and planetary sciences. Highpressure phases are rarely found in nature as a result of shock events like meteorite impacts or volcanic events in nature. Recreating these phases remains a challen ...
