Shaping of femtosecond pulses using phase-only filters designed by simulated annealing

Abstract

Shaping of femtosecond pulses can be achieved by spatial masking of optical frequency components which are spatially dispersed within a lens and grating apparatus.1 By using microlithographically patterned masks, both the phase and the amplitude of the optical spectrum can be precisely controlled; as a result, nearly arbitrarily shaped ultrashort pulses can be synthesized. Pulse shaping has been used as a tool for a number of nonlinear optics experiments, e.g., repetitive impulsive excitation of optical phonons in solids.2
