 The hexagonal ZnSe & Se nanoparticles can be fabricated by properly controlling the fluences of the irradiating fs laser.  The nanostructure with anisotropic transmission characteristics on ITO films induced by fs laser can be used for the alignment layer, polarizer and conducting layer in LCD cell.  The nanostructure on the surface of ITO films significantly attenuates blue light, which are suited to eye protection and the screening of images behind ITO films for information security.
