Dark optical solitons: physics and applications

TL;DR: A detailed overview of the physics and applications of optical dark solitons can be found in this article, where the authors discuss the instability-induced dynamics of dark-solitons in the models of generalized (i.e., non-Kerr) optical nonlinearities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ablation of solids by femtosecond lasers: ablation mechanism and ablation thresholds for metals and dielectrics

TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanism of ablation of solids by intense femtosecond laser pulses is described in an explicit analytical form, and the formulas for ablation thresholds and ablation rates for metals and dielectrics, combining the laser and target parameters, are derived and compared to experimental data.

Producing air-stable monolayers of phosphorene and their defect engineering

TL;DR: A new highly controllable method for fabricating high quality, air-stable phosphorene films with a designated number of layers ranging from a few down to monolayer, which could lead to new electronic and optoelectronic devices, such as electrically tunable, broadband near infrared lighting devices operating at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generation of 5-fs pulses and octave-spanning spectra directly from a Ti:sapphire laser

TL;DR: Spectra extending from 600 to 1200 nm have been generated from a Kerr-lens mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser producing 5-fs pulses, to the authors' knowledge the broadest ever generated directly from a laser oscillator.
