A nonlinear hydrodynamic theory of ultrafast laser self-organization

Jean-Philippe Colombier, Emeric Gandon, Quentin Fornasiero +1

Ultrashort laser pulses can induce order out of chaos. A femtosecond pulse melts a metal surface for about a hundred picoseconds; under photoexcitation with no net polarization axi…

From pore collapse to crystal growth: ultrafast laser-induced stishovite formation in nanoporous silica

Aram Yedigaryan, Mohamed Yaseen Noor, Elena Kachan +4

The crystallization of amorphous solids under ultrafast laser irradiation represents a paradigm of non-equilibrium phase transitions, where the interplay between electromagnetic en…

Mimicking the earth core conditions with ultrafast laser materials interaction

Mohamed Yaseen Noor, Aram Yedigaryan, Gabriel Calderon +6

Ultrafast lasers create extreme, non-equilibrium thermodynamic conditions that can transiently reach pressures and temperatures comparable to interior core of the earth. Here we sh…

Unrolled-SINDy: A Stable Explicit Method for Non linear PDE Discovery from Sparsely Sampled Data

Fayad Ali Banna, Antoine Caradot, Eduardo Brandao +3

Identifying from observation data the governing differential equations of a physical dynamics is a key challenge in machine learning. Although approaches based on SINDy have shown…

Photonic Learning in Ultrafast Laser-Induced Complexity

Fayad Ali Banna, Eduardo Brandao, Anthony Nakhoul +3

How can one design complex systems capable of learning for a given functionality? In the context of ultrafast laser-surface interaction, we unravel the nature of learning schemes t…

Chiral patterning of rough surfaces with vortex laser beams: from structured polarization to twisted forces

Vladimir Yu. Fedorov, Jean-Philippe Colombier

The ability to create surface structures with precisely controlled chirality remains a major challenge in laser-matter interaction experiments. In this work, we theoretically study…
