    Ultrashort light pulses in transparent solids: propagation peculiarities and practical applications
    (National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 2019-08) Blonskyi, I. V.; Kadan, V. M.; Pavlova, S. V.; Pavlov, Ihor A.; Shpotyuk, O. I.; Khasanov, O. K.
    The peculiarities of the femtosecond filamentation in Kerr media has been studied using a set of time-resoling experimental techniques. These include the temporal self-compression of a laser pulse in the filamentation mode, repulsive and attractive interactions of filaments, and influence of the birefringence on the filamentation. The propagation of femtosecond laser pulses at the 1550-nm wavelength in c-Si is studied for the first time using methods of time-resolved transmission microscopy. The nonlinear widening of the pulse spectrum due to the Kerr- and plasma-caused self-phase modulation is recorded.
