چکیده
Abstract The presence of pulse front tilt (PFT), caused by angular dispersion (AD) in femtosecond laser pulses, could degrade the performance system and/or impact experimental yields. We present a single-shot diagnostic capable measuring AD x – y plane adopting an intensity mask. It can be applied to stretched making it ideal for diagnosing along amplification chain high-power system, and ultrashort pulses exiting from optical compressor. In this way, help properly characterizing before is delivered target area. Letter, we evidence retrieval different compression configurations, supported theoretical analysis.

Extreme pulse-front tilt from an etalon
Angular dispersion—whether from prisms, diffraction gratings, or etalons—is well known to result in a pulsefront tilt. Focusing into a tilted etalon, in particular, generates a huge angular dispersion, which is very useful for high-resolution spectrometers and pulse shapers. Here we demonstrate experimentally that, due to the large angular dispersion 3° /nm , the pulse directly out of an etalon...
متن کاملMeasuring pulse-front tilt in ultrashort pulses using GRENOUILLE.
We show that the spatio-temporal distortion, pulse-front tilt, is naturally, easily, and sensitively measured by the recently demonstrated, extremely simple variation of single-shot second-harmonic generation frequency-resolved optical gating (SHG FROG): GRENOUILLE. While GRENOUILLE traces are ordinarily centered on the zero of delay, a pulse with pulse-front tilt yields a trace whose center is...
متن کاملIntegrated single grating compressor for variable pulse front tilt in simultaneously spatially and temporally focused systems.
A Ti:Al(3)O(2) multipass chirped pulse amplification system is outfitted with a single-grating, simultaneous spatial and temporal focusing (SSTF) compressor platform. For the first time, this novel design has the ability to easily vary the beam aspect ratio of an SSTF beam, and thus the degree of pulse-front tilt at focus, while maintaining a net zero-dispersion system. Accessible variation of ...
متن کاملSingle-shot Doppler Velocity Estimation using double chirp pulse compression
Coherent ultrasonic Doppler velocimeters provide precise and accurate measurements of velocity profiles in many applications. However, these instruments suffer from the well known range-velocity ambiguity, making this kind of instruments not well suited for velocity measurements in channels of several meters depth and water velocities of some meters per second. On the other side, incoherent ult...
متن کاملModified spectrum autointerferometric correlation (MOSAIC) for single-shot pulse characterization.
A method for generation of the modified spectrum autointerferometric correlation that allows single-shot pulse characterization is demonstrated. A sensitive graphical representation of the ultrashort pulse phase quality is introduced that delineates the difference between the presence of temporal and spectral phase distortions. Using these schemes, full-field reconstruction of ultrashort laser ...
