Abstract
COSTANZO-CASO, P.A.; CUADRADO, C.; DUCHOWICZ, R. and SICRE, E.. Optical pulse compression by photonic devices. Lat. Am. appl. res. [online]. 2009, vol.39, n.3, pp.213-217. ISSN 0327-0793.
By combining phase modulation and dispersive transmission on a given time-varying in-put signal, we propose an optical device for produc-ing ultrashort light pulses of high optical power. We derive the relationship between the required proper-ties of the input signal and the device parameters in order to optimize the energy concentration in the output optical pulses. The high-order aberrations effects of the time lens which perform the phase modulation are considered. Besides, the differences on the obtained pulse shape when the input signal has a gaussian or a super-gaussian envelope are illus-trated. Finally, some numerical simulations are shown which illustrate the feasibility of the method.
