We present a new method that can be used to calculate pulse-front distortion by measuring the spectral interference of two point-diffraction fields in their overlapped district. We demonstrate, for the first time, the measurement of the pulse-front distortion of the pulse from a complex multi-pass amplification system, which exists in almost all high-power laser systems, and obtain the irregular pulse-front distribution. The method presented does not need any reference light or assumption about the pulse-front distribution, and has an accuracy of several femtoseconds. 相似文献

By means of Collins diffraction integral, the propagation expression of an ultrashort laser pulse passing through a spatial filter is derived. The effects of the magnification of spatial filter on pulse broadening and distortion of pulse-front for the ultrashort optical pulse are analytically deduced and numerically simulated. It is found that pulse broadening and propagation time difference of a laser pulse getting through spatial filter is proportional to the magnification. As a conclusion, in an ultrashort pulse laser system with a large aperture, the effect of pulse broadening and distortion of pulse-front should be considered. 相似文献

We present a method of adjusting the pulse duration and eliminating the pulse-front tilt of an ultrashort pulse in real time by use of a specially configured single-shot autocorrelator. Pulse-front tilt, or a temporal delay across the pulse front, is a common ultrashort-pulse phenomenon when dispersive elements are being used. We show the design of an autocorrelator that can be used to eliminate the pulse-front tilt and simultaneously adjust the pulse duration in real time by adjustment of the pulse compressor of a chirped-pulse amplified laser system. 相似文献

By use of a transmission-grating-based Michelson interferometer, second-order interferometric as well as intensity autocorrelation traces of the third harmonic of a Ti:sapphire 50-fs laser beam produced in Ar have been measured. The duration of the harmonic is found to be that expected from lowest-order perturbation theory. At this wavelength, the performance of the interferometer with respect to pulse-front distortion and dispersion is found to be satisfactory. This result is a first step toward the use of the interferometer for the temporal characterization of higher harmonics or harmonic superposition forming attosecond pulse trains. 相似文献

Ultra-broadband optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification is analyzed based the compensation of phase-mismatch, which is achieved by matching of both group-velocity and pulse-front between signal and idler by the combination of the noncollinear-phase-match and pulse-front-tilt. The results show exactly matching of both group-velocity and pulse-front is the important criterion for constructing an UBOPCPA. Its general model is developed, in which the group velocities, noncollinear angles, spatial walk-off angles, linear angular spectral dispersion coefficients and pulse-front tilted angles are suitably linked to each other. Finally, specific numerical calculations and simulations are presented for β-barium borate OPCPA with type-I noncollinear angularly dispersed geometry. 相似文献

Ultrabroadband three-wave-mixing is analyzed using the concept of pulse-front-tilt, which is achieved by means of angular dispersion. The results show exactly matching of both group-velocity and pulse-front is the important criterion for constructing an ultrabroadband TWM. A theoretical model is developed, in which the group velocities, noncollinear angles, spatial walk-off angles, linear angular spectral dispersion coefficients and pulse-front tilted angles are suitably linked to each other. Expressions for finding ideal phase matching angle, noncollinear angle and linear angular spectral dispersion coefficient are obtained. Specific numerical results are presented for crystals BBO and LBO with type-I noncollinear angularly dispersed geometry. The numerical simulations verify that our model is valid for designing a practicable ultrabroadband parametric process. PACS 42.65.Yj; 42.65.Lm; 42.65.Ky; 42.60.By 相似文献

We review the state of the art of ultrashort-light-pulse measurement using frequency-resolved-optical-gating (FROG). Recent developments have extended the state of the art considerably. FROG devices for measuring the intensity and phase of ultrashort laser pulses have become so simple that almost no alignment is required. In addition, such devices not only operate single shot, but they also yield the two most important spatio-temporal distortions, spatial chirp and pulse-front tilt. With other FROG variations, it is now possible to measure more general ultrashort light pulses (i.e., pulses much more complex than common laser pulses), with time-bandwidth products as large as several thousand and as weak as a few hundred photons, and despite other difficulties such as random absolute phase and poor spatial coherence. 相似文献

It is shown that the combination of pulse-front slant, kappa -vector tilt, and crystal birefringence often permits exact matching of both phase and group velocities for three-wave mixing in birefringent crystals. This exact match makes possible more-efficient mixing of short light pulses, and it permits efficient mixing of chirped or broadband light. I analyze this process and present examples. 相似文献

We present a novel high-yield Thomson scattering geometry that takes advantage of compact electron bunches, as available in
advanced, low-emittance linear accelerators or laser wakefield accelerators. In order to avoid the restrictions on the X-ray
photon yield imposed by the Rayleigh limit, we use ultrashort, pulse-front tilted laser pulses in a side-scattering geometry.
Such a traveling-wave setup allows an overlap of electron and laser beams, even after propagating over distances much longer
than the Rayleigh length. Experimental designs are discussed and optimized for different scattering angles. Specifically,
to minimize group delay dispersion at large scattering angles >10°, we propose the use of varied-line spacing (VLS) gratings
for spatio-temporal laser pulse shaping. Compared to head-on (180°) Thomson scattering, interaction lengths are in the centimeter
to meter range and photon numbers for ultrashort X-ray pulses can increase by several orders of magnitudes. 相似文献

In this work we present a matrix analysis of the sensitivity of otherwise dispersionless 4f and 2f-2f optical systems to misalignments resulting in spatio-temporal distortions of ultrashort laser pulses. Special attention is given to the possible creation of a pulse-front tilt (PFT). The exact analytical expression for the second-harmonic interferometric autocorrelation signal of an inverted-field autocorrelator is calculated. It confirms the effective broadening of the ultrashort pulses in the presence of an arbitrary PFT. 相似文献

We present a practical method to calibrate the lens distortion in line scan cameras. The distortion correction software based on this method has been designed and implemented in the digital protection of cultural relics. In this paper, a lens distortion model which applies to line scan cameras is derived from the widely used array camera distortion model. Then, a new calibration method which utilizes the imaging characteristic of equidistant collinear feature points is proposed to calibrate the model. Experiment results show the proposed calibration method is stable and effective. 相似文献

We develop a technique to correct the distortion generated by the presence of a grating that prevents correct imaging of a test object in an optical system. We use the design concept of virtual-optics imaging systems to implement a setup and a corresponding filter to remove the distortion. Results are presented showing the potential of the method. 相似文献

Transform-limited (TL) visible pulses with as short a duration as 4.7 fs with a 5 7J pulse energy have been generated for the first time from a novel noncollinear optical parametric amplifier (NOPA). Both signal-idler group-velocity matching and pulse-front matching are essential to generate coherent down-converted pulses compressible to the TL pulse with more than a 150-THz bandwidth. Tunable operation with bandwidth-limited sub-10-fs pulses in the visible (550-700 nm) and near-infrared (900-1300 nm) ranges, achieved by increasing the seed chirp, is also a remarkable property. The NOPA is believed to be on useful light source for ultrafast spectroscopy on an extremely short time-scale. 相似文献

Horizontal parallax distortion in toed-in camera with wide-angle lens for mobile device 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An effect of the toed-in camera configuration is keystone distortion, which causes vertical and horizontal parallax in the stereoscopic image. The horizontal parallax is the source of the depth plane curvature. However, if the stereoscopic image captured by the toed-in camera system with fish-eye lens is displayed on mobile device, it is uncomfortable to view because the horizontal parallax contains horizontal parallax distortion occurred by the wide field of view of the lenses. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a novel correction method of the horizontal parallax distortion, which is one of the keystone distortions, in a toed-in camera with fish-eye lenses for mobile device. We have experimented to attest the proposed method. In experiment, we used two charge coupled device cameras, whose field of view is 48.48°. In addition, the captured stereoscopic image was corrected for the barrel distortion and the horizontal parallax distortion. Therefore, the proposed method provides correcting of the horizontal parallax distortion from a toed-in camera system in order that the users can enjoy three-dimensional effects without the visual fatigue. Additionally, the proposed method is able to apply to toed-in camera consisting of any kinds of cameras. 相似文献

We describe a new and simple method to aid in the analysis of retrieved pulses from inverted frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) traces. The analysis can separate noise from distortion and shows that distortion is more deleterious to the retrieved pulse than is pure noise. The analysis relies on the fact that FROG traces can be constructed from a single outer product of two vectors, whereas distortion and noise require the sum of a series of outer products. 相似文献

This Letter proposes a new method for automatically removing radial lens distortion from image feature point correspondences of two views. Based on the projective geometric relationship between two views of a planar scene, we have derived a system of algebraic equations that relates the invariants to the distortion parameters to be found. We then propose a noniterative procedure to solve the equations system, and a kernel-voting scheme to select the best root. Being a noniterative approach, our method overcomes many problems with the conventional iterative approach. It also largely decouples the estimation of the distortion from the estimation of other camera parameters and, therefore, delivers more reliable results. Experiments on both synthetic data and real images have provided satisfactory results. 相似文献
