Simple dispersion law for arbitrary sequences of dispersive optics.

چکیده
We give a simple general formula for the total angular dispersion due to multiple arbitrary dispersive elements in a series. It is simply the sum of the individual elements' angular dispersions but with each divided by the total spatial magnification afterward (or, equivalently, multiplied by the total angular magnification afterward).

Unitary Transformations on Temporal Modes using Dispersive Optics for Boson Sampling and Quantum Simulation
Conventionally, unitary transformations on optical modes have been implemented on a spatial basis set using a system of beamsplitters and phase shifters. We present methods which allow orders of magnitude increase in the number of modes in linear optics experiments by moving from spatial encoding to temporal encoding and using dispersion. This enables significant practical advantages for linear...
متن کاملNonlinear dispersion-based incoherent photonic processing for microwave pulse generation with full reconfigurability.
A novel all-optical technique based on the incoherent processing of optical signals using high-order dispersive elements is analyzed for microwave arbitrary pulse generation. We show an approach which allows a full reconfigurability of a pulse in terms of chirp, envelope and central frequency by the proper control of the second-order dispersion and the incoherent optical source power distributi...
متن کاملFemtosecond-pulse laser chirp compensated by cavity-mirror dispersion.
The duration of pulses generated from a simple colliding-pulse mode-locked cw dye laser is measured as a function of cavity-mirror dispersion. The optimum amount of mirror dispersion of ø (omega) congruent with + 1.8 x 10(-28) sec(2) and a suitable mirror coating for upchirp compensation are identified. The adjustment of mirror dispersion only, without additional dispersive elements, generates ...
متن کاملTi:sapphire regenerative amplifier for ultrashort high-power multikilohertz pulses without an external stretcher.
We report a simple and robust Ti:sapphire regenerative amplifier without prepulse stretching. Pulse stretching by positive group-velocity dispersion and negative third-order dispersion are provided by highly dispersive flint glass prisms inside the regenerative amplifier cavity. Using a single-grating compressor, we obtain transformlimited 60-fs Gaussian pulses at up to a 5-kHz repetition rate ...
متن کاملDiffraction-free and dispersion-free pulsed beam propagation in dispersive media.
The diffraction of pulsed beams of light is formulated as an anomalously dispersive phenomenon. In a dispersive material, the effects of material group-velocity dispersion and diffraction on pulsed beam propagation can mutually cancel if the transverse profile of the pulse is suitably chosen.
