Abstract :
We demonstrate a synchronized femtosecond laser pulse switching system for a rapid patterning, which is applicable to fabricate periodic photonic band gap structures. Also, we show the utility of the femtosecond laser writing of periodic patterns by fabricating the submicron patterns inside a transparent material, which is great potential for future application.
