Such a technique discloses a versatile set of applications, ranging from telecommunications to photonic quantum circuits. Attempts to transfer this 3D ultrafast inscription technique to the most important material in the microelectronics industry, silicon, failed so far for a transverse inscription strategy.enInscription and Characterization of Transversely Written Waveguides in Silicon with Picosecond Laser Pulsesconference paper
