Controllable grating fabrication by three interfering replicas of single femtosecond laser pulse

【摘要】 The controllable periodic M-shape gratings are fabricated on the surface of silica glass by three coplanar interfering beams from a single femtosecond pulse.The configuration of the M-shape periodic structure is characterized by optical microscopy and atomic force microscopy.The experimental results and the theoretical simulation show that the period and the modulation depth ratio between the neighboring grooves of the fabricated gratings can be controlled by adjusting the collision angles and pulse energy of the three beams,respectively.更多还原
