Turning a polystyrene microsphere into a multimode light source by laser irradiation

Polystyrene (PS) is generally considered as a passive optical material that is transparent to light with wavelengths longer than 300 nm. In practice, PS micro- and nanospheres with uniform sizes are usually used to build photonic crystals based on self-assembly mechanism. Here, we demonstrate experi...
