Book Description
In this thesis, femtosecond lasers are explored for the fabrication of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) in suspended core fibers (SCFs) as well as direct writing of integrated optical devices in bulk fused silica glass. The FBGs fabricated in suspended core fibers with different core geometries were demonstrated with femtosecond laser exposure through a Talbot interferometer. In this case, the use of a femtosecond laser system was crucial as it eliminates the need for the use of photosensitive fibers, which is the case for SCFs, while the Talbot interferometry setup provided flexibility in the definition of the grating periodicity, while simultaneously protecting the optical components used in the fabrication process from the high intensities reached during exposure in the proximity of the fibers. These Bragg gratings were employed to show simultaneous strain and temperature sensing. Using a femtosecond laser direct writing system, novel point-by-point fabrication arrangements, with detailed attention to the computer controlled laser beam modulation, were developed in order to correctly introduce modulation of the refractive index profile during the waveguide fabrication process. This technique enabled the development of phase and frequency control required for advanced Bragg grating waveguide (BGW) fabrication and arbitrary spectral shaping. Procedures were demonstrated for the fabrication of chirped and phased shifted BGWs for applications in temporal pulse shaping and spectral shaping that showed significantly improved feature resolutions for sensing applications. The BGWs were used as a practical sensitive tool to determine and study the waveguide birefringence inherent to the nonlinear absorption processes typical of femtosecond laser-material interaction. The control of form and stress birefringence was developed in order to accomplish the fabrication of integrated optical components for polarization control, like guided wave retarders and polarization beam splitters. Tuning of this waveguide birefringence was achieved by the introduction of stress inducing laser modification tracks that enabled the ability to both enhance or reduce the inherent birefringence. Characterization techniques were developed for the absolute determination of the birefringence based on BGWs spectrum splitting, together with crossed polarizer measurements, while novel data analysis procedures were demonstrated for the study of polarization dependent and polarization independent directional couplers with the introduction of a polarization splitting ratio which is wavelength and coupling length dependent. All of the improvements made in the understanding of waveguide birefringence control provided increased flexibility to simultaneously fabricate low polarization mode dispersion circuits, as well as more efficient and compact polarization dependent devices. The polarization aspects detailed here, together with the point-by-point fabrication system, may be further developed in the future towards the fabrication of more complex integrated devices that combine spectral, temporal, and polarization control, all achievable with the same femtosecond laser writing system. These flexible processing techniques will open new directions for writing additional functionalities in optical circuits with more compact three-dimensional geometries.

Book Description
This is the first comprehensive treatment of the interaction of femtosecond laser pulses with solids at nonrelativistic intensity. It connects phenomena from the subtle atomic motion on the nanoscale to the generation of extreme pressure and temperature in the interaction zone confined inside a solid. The femtosecond laser-matter interaction has already found numerous applications in industry, medicine, and materials science. However, there is no consensus on the interpretation of related phenomena. With mathematics kept to a minimum, this is a highly engaging and readable treatment for students and researchers in science and engineering. The book avoids complex mathematical formulae, and hence the content is accessible to nontechnical readers. Useful summaries after each chapter provide compressed information for quick estimates of major parameters in planned or performed experiments. The book connects the basic physics of femtosecond laser-solid interactions to a broad range of applications. Throught the text, basic assumptions are derived from the first principles, and new results and ideas are presented. From such analyses, a qualitative and predictive framework for the field emerges, the impact of which on applications is also discussed.

Book Description
The field of ultrafast nonlinear optics is broad and multidisciplinary, and encompasses areas concerned with both the generation and measurement of ultrashort pulses of light, as well as those concerned with the applications of such pulses. Ultrashort pulses are extreme events – both in terms of their durations, and also the high peak powers which their short durations can facilitate. These extreme properties make them powerful experiment tools. On one hand, their ultrashort durations facilitate the probing and manipulation of matter on incredibly short timescales. On the other, their ultrashort durations can facilitate high peak powers which can drive highly nonlinear light-matter interaction processes. Ultrafast Nonlinear Optics covers a complete range of topics, both applied and fundamental in nature, within the area of ultrafast nonlinear optics. Chapters 1 to 4 are concerned with the generation and measurement of ultrashort pulses. Chapters 5 to 7 are concerned with fundamental applications of ultrashort pulses in metrology and quantum control. Chapters 8 and 9 are concerned with ultrafast nonlinear optics in optical fibres. Chapters 10 to 13 are concerned with the applications of ultrashort pulses in areas such as particle acceleration, microscopy, and micromachining. The chapters are aimed at graduate-student level and are intended to provide the student with an accessible, self-contained and comprehensive gateway into each subject.

Book Description
This book describes the ultra-short laser–matter interactions from the subtle atomic motion to the generation of extreme pressures inside the bulk of a transparent crystal. It is the successor to Femtosecond Laser–Matter Interactions: Theory, Experiment and Applications (2011). Explanation and experimental verification of the exceptional technique for the phase transformations under high pressure are in the core of the book. The novel phase formation occurs along the unique solid-plasmasolid transformation path: the memory of the initial state is lost after conversion to plasma. New phase forms from chaos during the cooling to the ambient. The pressure-affected material remains detained inside a pristine crystal at the laboratory tabletop. Unique super-dense aluminium and new phases of silicon were created by the confined micro-explosions. The text also describes the recent studies that used the quasi-non-diffracting Bessel beams. The applications comprise the new high-pressure material formation and micromachining. The book is an appealing source for readers interested in the cutting-edge research exploring extreme conditions and creating nanostructures at the laboratory tabletop.
