The Ultrashort Pulse Laser Workshop is the DEPS annual forum for ultrashort pulse laser technology, science,
and applications. The goal of the meeting is to enable an enhanced understanding of the existing state-of-the-art
in ultrashort pulse laser science and technology and its potential applications for National Security. The
workshop is intended to allow cross agency information exchange on the immerging ultrashort pulse laser
technology for security and defense application. Other application areas of interest to the broader
research and industrial communities are also included. The workshop provides a unique opportunity from
diverse communities to interact with leading scientists in ultrafast, ultraintense science and technology.
Some presentations may be at the Limited Distribution or Classified levels.
