Ultrashort Laser Pulses II;Frequency-domain phase expansion;The Fourier transformof a chirped pulse;But when the pulse is long (a 0): which is the inverse of the instantaneous frequency vs. time. ;;;The frequency of a light wave can also vary nonlinearly with time. This is the electric field of aGaussian pulse whose fre-quency varies quadraticallywith time: This light wave has the expression: Arbitrarily complex frequency-vs.-time behavior is possible. But we usually describe phase distortions in the frequency domain.;;3rd-order spectral phase: quadratic chirp;Negative 3rd-order spectral phase;4th-order spectral phase;Negative 4th-order spectral phase;;Negative 5th-order spectral phase;The relative importance of intensity and phase;Pulse propagation;;The pulse length;The rms pulse width;The Full-Width-Half-Maximum;The Uncertainty Principle;;The coherence time (tc = 1/Dn) indicates the smallest temporal structure of the pulse. In terms of the coherence time: TBP = Dn Dt = Dt / tc = about how many spikes are in the pulse A similar argument can be made in the frequency domain, where the TBP is the ratio of the spectral width to the width of the smallest spectral structure.;Temporal and spectral shapes and TBPs of simple ultrashort pulses;;;;;The shortest pulse for a given spectrum has a constant spectral phase.;The narrowest spectrum for a given intensity has a constant phase.
