Temporal-contrast imperfections as drivers for ultrafast laser modifications in bulk silicon
Despite recent successes in three-dimensional ultrafast laser writing inside silicon and other narrow gap materials, strong discrepancies remain in the identified narrow experimental windows to exceed material breakdown thresholds. In an experiment in which we irradiate silicon with perfectly synchr...
