Abstract
We show in proof-of-principle experiments an axial resolution improvement in two-photon-excited fluorescence and polymerization enabled by the short coherence length of two counter-propagating ultrashort laser pulses. The interference of these pulses generate a spatial interference fringe pattern, whose width scales inversely to the spectral bandwidth and is therefore considerably shorter than the effective focal length of a laser beam conventionally focused from only one side.
