Real-time SPIDER: ultrashort pulse characterization at 20 Hz.
We present an implementation of spectral phase interferometry for direct electric-field reconstruction (SPIDER) which characterizes ultrashort optical pulses in the spectral or temporal domain at a rate of 20 Hz. This apparatus was used in real-time as a diagnostic tool to optimize our 1 kHz regeneratively amplified laser system for the shortest duration pulses.
متن کاملComplementary ultrashort laser pulse characterization using MOSAIC and SHG FROG.
A new (to our knowledge) method for generating the modified spectrum autointerferometric correlation (MOSAIC) trace from the second-harmonic generation frequency-resolved optical gating (SHG FROG) dataset is shown. Examples are presented illustrating enhanced visual sensitivity, applicability, and complementary qualitative pulse characterization using SHG FROG.
متن کاملSelf-referenced spectral interferometry for ultrashort infrared pulse characterization.
We demonstrate for the first time (to our knowledge) characterization of ultrashort IR pulses by self-referenced spectral interferometry. Both sub-55-fs pulses from 1.4 μm to 2 μm and broadband 2.5-cycle pulses at 1.65 μm (13 fs FWHM) are characterized.
متن کاملUltrashort pulse characterization with a terahertz streak camera.
A phase-locked terahertz transient is exploited as an ultrafast phase gate for femtosecond optical pulses. We directly map out the group delay dispersion of a low-power near-infrared pulse by measuring the electro-optically induced polarization rotation as a function of wavelength. Our experiment covers the spectral window from 1.0 to 1.4 μm and reaches a temporal precision better than 1 fs. A ...
متن کاملSPIDER: A decade of measuring ultrashort pulses
It was ten years ago in Rochester, New York that the first SPIDER was built. This simple acronym belies the subtleties of its inner workings; Spectral Phase Interferometry for Direct Electric-field Reconstruction (the “f” in field conveniently missed the cut) is a device that measures ultrashort pulses, utilizing spectral shearing interferometry and directly recovering the spectral phase. The v...
