Publication number: 20230348314Abstract: The invention relates to a process for inscribing a three-dimensional structure formed from variations in refractive index in the bulk of a transparent oxide glass comprising silver ions by femtosecond-laser-beam irradiation, the method comprising: generating a laser beam made up of a series of ultra-brief light pulses of pulse duration shorter than the characteristic time of thermalization of the glass so as to achieve an excitation at the point of irradiation via multi-photon interaction; focusing said beam at a desired depth in the glass; irradiating point by point the glass with said beam so as to form the structure in the glass along a predetermined path, the number of pulses, the repetition rate of the pulses and the irradiance at each irradiation point being controlled to induce an accumulation of silver aggregates localised in an annular peripheral region around an irradiation point, said accumulation of aggregates generating a variation in refractive index in the annular peripheral region around theType: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2021Publication date: November 2, 2023Inventors: Thierry CARDINAL, Sylvain DANTO, Evelyne FARGIN, Théo GUERINEAU, Yannick PETIT, Lionel CANIONI, Romain LABERDESQUE

Patent number: 7709798Abstract: This invention relates to a wide band optical gate in the terahertz domain (wavelengths in the far infrared). It comprises a first optical source (2) emitting a first beam (FTHz) in said terahertz domain, a first plate made of a semiconducting material (1) illuminated by said terahertz beam and a second optical source (3) emitting a second beam (FIR) at a wavelength capable of saturating the first plate (1) made of a semi-conducting material and making it reflective at terahertz wavelengths. This invention also relates to a system for measuring terahertz signals and to a terahertz generator. It is particularly applicable to systems for measuring terahertz signals and to terahertz generators.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2005Date of Patent: May 4, 2010Assignees: Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, L'Universite de Bordeaux IInventors: Lionel Canioni, Rysvan Maleck-Rassoul, Patrick Mounaix, Laurent Sarger
