    Nonlinear optical mechanism of forming periodical nanostructures in large bandgap dielectrics
    (Les Ulis : EDP Sciences, 2013) Grunwald, R.; Das, S.K.; Debroy, A.; McGlynn, E.; Messaoudi, H.
    Nonlinear excitation mechanisms of plasmons and their influence on femtosecond-laser induced sub-wavelength ripple generation on dielectric and semiconducting transparent materials are discussed. The agreement of theoretical and experimental data indicates the relevance of the model.

    Dynamical studies on the generation of periodic surface structures by femtosecond laser pulses
    (Les Ulis : EDP Sciences, 2013) Rosenfeld, A.; Höhm, S.; Bonse, J.; Krüger, J.
    The dynamics of the formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) on fused silica upon irradiation with linearly polarized fs-laser pulses (50 fs pulse duration, 800 nm center wavelength) is studied experimentally using a double pulse experiment with cross polarized pulse sequences and a trans illumination femtosecond time-resolved (0.1 ps - 1 ns) pump-probe diffraction approach. The results in both experiments confirm the importance of the ultrafast energy deposition and the laser-induced free-electron plasma in the conduction band of the solids for the formation of LIPSS.
