Measuring the spatio-temporal field of diffracting ultrashort pulses

Optics 2009-05-28 v1

Abstract

Using SEA TADPOLE, we directly measure the spatio-temporal field of diffracting ultrashort pulses with femtosecond temporal and micrometer spatial resolutions. Using a circular aperture and an opaque disk, we observe boundary wave pulses including their superluminal speeds.
