Abstract
The idea of expanding the optical pulse spectrum using self-phase modulation in a Kerr- like medium and subsequent “focusing" of the pulse spectral components in time in a negatively dispersive medium (i.e. using gratings, prism pairs, or propagation effects) has proven in the last two decades to be a fundamental concept of nonlinear optics of the fs-time scale.1
