Non-ablative femtosecond laser exposure of fused silica in the sub-50 fs regime (Conference Presentation)

In the non-ablative regime, femtosecond laser pulse duration is known to affect the nature of the modification induced in the microstructure of fused silica. It has been demonstrated than below 200 fs, two different regimes are found, one at low energy, le ...

Dynamics of the MnAs alpha/beta-Striped Microstructure and of the Fe Magnetization Reversal in Fe/MnAs/GaAs(001): An Optical-Laser Pump-Free-Electron-Laser Probe Scattering Experiment

Eugenio Ferrari

It was shown recently that the Fe magnetization reversal in the Fe/MnAs/GaAs(001) epitaxial system, attained by temperature control of the regular stripe pattern of the MnAs alpha- and beta-phases, can also be driven by an ultrashort optical laser pulse. I ...
