In the perspective of the laser lightning rod, the ability of femtosecond filaments to trigger and to guide large scale discharges has been studied for several years.The present paper reports recent experimental results showing for the first time that filaments are able not only to trigger iphone 14 price texas and guide but also to divert an electric discharge from its normal path.Laser filaments are also able to divert the spark without contact between laser and electrodes at large distance from the yazhi design saree laser.A comparison between negative and positive discharge polarities also reveals important discrepancies in the guiding mechanism.
