Additional information

Ultrashort optical pulses are powerful tools for studying fast dynamic phenomena in science and engineering. Precise pulse measurement is challenging due to lack of sufficiently fast photodetectors. This paper presents a novel method for continuous single-short characterization of ultrashort pulses at a record high update rate of 48.6 MHz based on spectral interferometry and dispersive Fourier transformation. This work was a major output from a Canada NSERC Strategic Project “Real-time, self-referenced complex-field characterization of ultrahigh-speed optical telecommunication data signals”. Initial results were presented at the 2010 IEEE Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics and Wang received the Best Student Paper Award.
