Quantitative Pulse Shape-Instability Analysis Using 2D-Runs FROG

Pedram Abdolghader, Rana Jafari, Abinash Das +3

We present a method for quantifying pulse-shape instability in a train of pulses using multi-shot Second-Harmonic-Generation Frequency-Resolved Optical Gating (SHG FROG). All versi…

Linear encoding of the spatiotemporal cat

Boris Gutkin, Li Han, Rana Jafari +2

The dynamics of an extended, spatiotemporally chaotic system might appear extremely complex. Nevertheless, the local dynamics, observed through a finite spatiotemporal window, can…

Linear chirp instability analysis for ultrafast pulse metrology

Esmerando Escoto, Rana Jafari, Günter Steinmeyer +1

Pulse train instabilities have often given rise to confusion in misinterpretation in ultrafast pulse characterization measurements. Most prominently known as the coherent artifact,…

100% Reliable Frequency-Resolved Optical Gating Pulse-Retrieval Algorithmic Approach

Rana Jafari, Rick Trebino

Frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) is widely used to measure ultrashort laser pulses, also providing an excellent indication of pulse-shape instabilities by disagreement betw…

100% Reliable Algorithm for Second-Harmonic-Generation Frequency-Resolved Optical Gating

Rana Jafari, Travis Jones, Rick Trebino

We demonstrate a novel algorithmic approach for the second-harmonic-generation (SHG) frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) ultrashort-pulse-measurement technique that always con…
