Femtosecond laser micromachining has emerged in recent years as a new technique for
micro/nano structure fabrication because of its applicability to virtually all kinds of materials …

Femtosecond laser micromachining can be used either to remove materials or to change a
material's properties, and can be applied to both absorptive and transparent substances …

This paper provides an overview of the rather new field concerning the applications of
femtosecond laser microstructuring of glass to optofluidics. Femtosecond lasers have …

When a femtosecond laser pulse is focused inside a transparent material, the optical
intensity in the focal volume can become high enough to induce permanent structural …

Using tightly focussed femtosecond laser pulses, waveguides can be fabricated inside
various glasses and crystals. This technique has the potential to generate not only planar …

Integrated quantum photonics, ie the generation, manipulation, and detection of quantum
states of light in integrated photonic chips, is revolutionizing the field of quantum information …

In this paper we review the micromachining of photonic devices in several materials by
means of ultrashort laser pulses. The physical mechanisms underlying the refractive index …

Femtosecond laser pulses can locally induce structural and chemical changes in the bulk of
transparent materials, opening the door to the three-dimensional fabrication of optical …

We describe a novel approach for the fabrication of optical waveguides by focused low-
repetition-rate femtosecond laser pulses. This approach overcomes the main limitation of the …

We developed a novel two-photon polymerization (2PP) configuration for fabrication of high-
aspect three-dimensional (3D) structures, with an overall height larger than working distance …
