The current demand for fabricating optical and photonic devices displaying high performance, using low-cost time-saving methods, prompts femtosecond (fs)-laser processing as a promising methodology. High low repetition lasers enable surface and/or bulk modification of distinct materials, which can be used applications ranging from waveguides to superhydrophobic surfaces. Herein, some fundamental aspects fs-laser well the basics their most common experimental apparatuses, are introduced. A...

ABSTRACT Whispering gallery mode microresonators have been triggering considerable advances in science due to their ability confine light within small dielectric volumes, which makes them suitable for a wide range of applications. Lithographic approaches the dominant technique fabricating microresonators; however, they restrict choice materials multistep processing nature. As an alternative, report direct laser fabrication acrylic based hollow microcylinder resonators, via two‐photon...

We investigated the effect of temporal shaped femtosecond pulses on silicon laser micromachining. By using sinusoidal spectral phases, pulse trains composed sub-pulses with distinct separations were generated and applied to surface produce Laser Induced Periodic Surface Structures (LIPSS). The LIPSS obtained different sub-pulse separation analyzed by comparing intensity two-dimensional fast Fourier Transform (2D-FFT) AFM images ripples It was observed that amplitude is more emphasized for...

The development of advanced photonics devices requires materials with large optical nonlinearities, fast response times and high transparency, while at the same time allowing for micro/nano-processing needed integrated photonics. In this context, glasses have been receiving considerable attention given their relevant properties which can be specifically tailored by compositional control. Corning Gorilla® Glass (strengthened alkali aluminosilicate glass) is well-known its use as a protective...

Gallium nitride (GaN) has been established as a promising candidate for integrated electro-optic and photonic devices, aiming at applications from optical switching to signal processing. Studies of its nonlinearities, however, lack spectral coverage, especially in the telecommunications range. In this study, we measured two-photon absorption coefficient (β) nonlinear index refraction (n2) GaN visible near-infrared by using femtosecond laser pulses. We observed an increase β (1.0 ± 0.2) (2.9...

This work aimed to assess the influence of different structured substrates with hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties on micro nano topographies developed titanium alloys over pre-osteoblastic cell behavior. Nano topography influences small dimension levels morphology by inducing filopodia formation in membranes, irrespectively wettability behavior surface. Therefore, nanostructured surfaces titanium-based samples using techniques surface modification processing, such as chemical...

Here we demonstrate resonant random lasing in Rhodamine B-doped polymeric microstructures fabricated by means of femtosecond laser writing via two-photon polymerization. To the best our knowledge, this is first demonstration action on-chip microdevices. Their feedback mechanism relies on diffuse reflections at structure sidewall surfaces, which known as spatially localized since scattering centers lie over edges gain medium. By exciting structures with a pulsed 532 nm, multimode emission...
