Since the invention and further development of lasers in the 1960s, photonics has grown
into a field that permeates virtually every aspect of modern life. As photonics deals with the …

Laser direct writing is a widely employed technique for 3D, contactless, and fast
functionalization of dielectrics. Its success mainly originates from the utilization of ultrashort …

Herein, via introducing eight methacryl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (Ma-POSS),
we dramatically enhance the holographic performance of phenanthraquinone-doped poly …

Sustainable and cost-effective long-term storage remains an unsolved problem. The most
widely used storage technologies today are magnetic (hard disk drives and tape). They use …

Random scattering of light in disordered media can be used for highly sensitive speckle-
based wavemeters and spectrometers. However, the multiple scattering events that fold long …

Holographic technologies have been envisioned as potentially impacting many areas of
everyday life, including science, entertainment, and healthcare, but their adoption is still at …

Great strides have been made over the past decade to establish femtosecond lasers in
advanced manufacturing systems for enabling new forms of non-contact processing of …

Quantitative phase imaging and holography allow highly sensitive detection of phase
changes, for example of surface non-uniformities or refractive index (RI) structures in the …

The field of surface nanostructuring is growing rapidly with the need to search for more
advanced fabrication solutions. The major challenge is the lack of appropriate combination …

Nanofabrication techniques have significantly impelled the development of nanomechanics
and nanophotonics by making nano‐precision material processing routine. Although widely …
