Extending Femtosecond Laser Superfilamentation in Air With a Phase Mask
We report an increase of the superfilamentation length of a focused terawatt laser beam using a multifocal phase mask. Optimized superfilaments extend the length of laser guided leader and air waveguides by a factor two. © 2024 The Author(s)
