Extremely simple device for measuring 20-fs pulses

Opt Lett. 2004 May 1;29(9):1025-7. doi: 10.1364/ol.29.001025.

Abstract

We demonstrate an extremely simple frequency-resolved optical-gating device (GRENOUILLE) capable of measuring pulses with spectra wider than 100 nm. Its nearly all-reflective geometry minimizes the material dispersion, allowing accurate measurement of pulses as short as 19 fs.
