The scattering physics of photons is traced back to Rayleigh scattering theory in 1871 and
Mie scattering theory in 1908. However, the scattering near field and far field have recently …

Over the past few decades, the rapid development of ultrafast lasers, such as femtosecond
lasers and picosecond lasers, has opened up new avenues for material processing due to …

Based on medium-tuned optical field enhancement effect around a self-assembled particle-
lens array (PLA) irradiated with a femtosecond (fs) laser source, we demonstrated that high …

Colloidal particle lens array (CPLA) proved to be an efficient near-field focusing device for
laser nanoprocessing of materials. Within CPLA, spherical particles do not act as …

Writing nano-sized features less than the diffraction limit of the lasers efficiently over a large
area requires special technology development. This paper reports the use of a self …

The photonic nanojet is a non-resonance focusing phenomenon with high intensity and
narrow spot that can serve as a powerful biosensor for in vivo detection of red blood cells …

We consider nanopatterning of dielectric substrates by harmonics of single powerful
femtosecond pulses from a Ti: Sapphire laser. The nanopatterning is mediated by closely …

We describe theoretical and experimental results on near-field interaction of two-
dimensionally (2D) arrayed, high-permittivity spherical particles on a substrate in the Mie …

We consider laser nanostructuring of the material surface by means of a colloidal particle
lens array. Here, the monolayer of dielectric micro-or nanospheres placed on the surface …

Specific spatially-localized optical field structure, which is often referred to as a photonic
nanojet (PNJ), is formed in the near-field scattering area of non-absorbing dielectric micron …
