  1. 1. Measuring the Pulse Duration and the Time-Dependent Polarisation State of Ultrashort Laser Pulses with the D-Scan Technique

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Atomfysik

    Author : Daniel Díaz Rivas; [2022]
    Keywords : pulse characterisation; ultrashort; laser; femtosecond; dispersion scan; polarisation; wave plate; temporal reconstruction; electric field reconstruction; time-dependent polarisation; polarisation gate; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Ultrashort laser pulses with time-dependent polarisation states have many applications, such as the generation of isolated attosecond pulses and the study of the optical chirality of molecules. In this project the polarisation gate, built from two quarter-wave plates of different orders, is thoroughly characterised in experiment and simulation. READ MORE

    Abstract : Light-matter interactions can be used to probe both light and matter as they yield information on a system's state. On the ultrafast timescale, it is possible to employ these interactions to probe fast-occurring phenomena. READ MORE
