Abstract

We report the recent progress in femtosecond filamentation and supercontinuum generation research at the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, including temporal evolution of plasma channels in air, generation of intense few-cycle laser pulses by cascaded filamentation, and enhanced supercontinuum generation in silver-nanoparticle-doped water.
