High Power Femtosecond Laser Light Strings

Abstract

This project funded for 2.5 years, focused on the modeling of high power femtosecond pulse propagation in air. The work has been very successful and has received a broad exposure amongst academic, industry and DOD communities. Potential applications abound for light strings and the RF electromagnetic pulses emitted from plasma channels generated by these light strings. A number of papers have been published in the literature and others are submitted or in preparation.
