Ultrafast laser nanostructuring in transparent materials for beam shaping and data storage [Invited]

Ultrafast laser nanostructuring in transparent materials for beam shaping and data storage [Invited]
Ultrafast laser nanostructuring in transparent materials for beam shaping and data storage [Invited]
We review recent progress in femtosecond laser anisotropic nanostructuring of transparent materials, including silica glass and thin films. With different writing parameters, oblate nanopores, single lamella-like structures and nanoripples are demonstrated, which can be used in geometric phase optical elements, space variant polarization converters and multiplexed optical data storage.

Abstract

We review recent progress in femtosecond laser anisotropic nanostructuring of transparent materials, including silica glass and thin films. With different writing parameters, oblate nanopores, single lamella-like structures and nanoripples are demonstrated, which can be used in geometric phase optical elements, space variant polarization converters and multiplexed optical data storage.
