Abstract

The formation of birefringent nanogratings by a femtosecond laser beam in the volume of sodium aluminoborate glasses is demonstrated. The dependences of the optical retardance of the nanogratings on the parameters of laser exposure and the chemical composition of the glass are determined. It was shown that an increase in the Al2O3 concentration at a constant [Na2O]/([B2O3 + Al2O3]) molar ratio does not affect the ranges of laser exposure parameter for nanogratings formation but leads to an increase in the retardance of the nanogratings.
