Definition of Femtosecond. Meaning of Femtosecond. Synonyms of Femtosecond

- A femtosecond is a unit of time in the International System of Units (SI) equal to 10−15 or 1⁄1 000 000 000 000 000 of a second; that is, one quadrillionth...
- nonlinear optics. In the specialized literature, "ultrashort" refers to the femtosecond (fs) and picosecond (ps) range, although such pulses no longer hold the...
- removed by suction. A more recent and less common variation of this, femtosecond laser-****isted phacoemulsification surgery, uses a laser to make the...
- options for cutting into the cornea, the microkeratome and the femtosecond laser. The femtosecond laser emits ultrashort pulses that act as a blade to cut through...
- reactions on extremely short timescales (approximately 10−15 seconds or one femtosecond, hence the name) in order to study the very act of atoms within molecules...
- astigmatism. LASIK surgery is performed by an ophthalmologist who uses a femtosecond laser or a microkeratome to create a corneal flap to expose the corneal...

- of picoseconds (10−12 s) or femtoseconds (10−15 s). A laser operated in this way is sometimes referred to as a femtosecond laser, for example, in modern...
- typical duration between a few picoseconds and 10 femtoseconds, in special cases even around 5 femtoseconds (few carrier wave cycles in each laser pulses)...
