      The article focuses on femtosecond pulses, which are short pulses of electricity, and how they can be used to create water-repellent surfaces. Topics include why hydrophobic surfaces are self-cleaning, the development of femtosecond lasers by physicists Chunlei Guo and Anatoliy Vorobyev, and how the technology could be used for self-cleaning household items.
