Abstract

Refractive-index change is induced by a self-trapped filament of ultrashort laser pulses in a wide variety of glasses. We investigated the dependence of refractive-index change on polarization state of incident ultrashort laser pulses in silica glass. We fabricated birefringent structures and estimated the refractive-index change.
