The emission of the first laser flash, fifty years ago in 2010, marked a real breakthrough in the field of optics. For the first time concentrated, orderly light existed which was unlike any other light. Every year since then, researchers have been striving to find new ways of ordering light in space, time or colour while developing new uses for laser light.
