Femtosecond Laser Plasma

Femtosecond laser plasma refers to the phenomenon created when extremely short bursts of laser light—lasting just quadrillionths of a second (femtoseconds)—are focused into a small area, often in a gas or liquid. This intense energy can ionize atoms, creating a plasma, which is a state of matter composed of charged particles. This technology is used in various fields, such as medicine for precise eye surgeries, materials science for creating novel materials, and research to study fundamental physical processes. It represents a cutting-edge method for manipulating matter at incredibly small scales with high precision.
