Abstract

While the need for measurement systems capable of characterizing ultrafast electrical signals has grown according to the increasing speed of electrical devices, Valdmanis et al. have, for the first time, achieved time-resolved ultrafast photo-detection with accuracy of less than 1ps by electro-optic sampling using a CPM dye laser¹⁾²⁾. Nowadays the electro-optic sampling method has opened a new area as a measurement method of ultrafast electrical signals^3)-7).
