Photo-induced microstructures in transparent materials with femtosecond laser pulses

Abstract

We report the observation that a void moves inside transparent materials under irradiation by femtosecond laser pulses in a fixed optical system. We also show birefringent structures induced by self-trapped filaments in silica glass.
