Self-referenced spectral interferometry theory

arXiv:1204.4949

Abstract

Self-referenced spectral interferometry, a newly introduced ultrafast pulse characterization is described and reviewed theoretically. Validity range, temporal dynamic, resolution and precision are detailed in the scope of different experimental set-ups. Ultimate performances for ultrashort pulses in terms of minimal or maximal pulse durations, distortions, spectral bandwidth, temporal dynamic and range are estimated, simulated and explained in detail.
