  • Patent number: 11705685
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a dispersion management method and apparatus based on non-periodic spectral phase jumps. Precise dispersion is provided by virtue of non-periodic spectral phase jumps, the dispersion can be tuned freely with engineering of the phase jump. A device based on non-periodic spectral phase jump also has a wide working bandwidth and could promote the development of ultrafast optics. The method includes: spatially separating a light pulse with different frequency components, and meanwhile, making the light pulse with the different frequency components propagate in parallel; enabling the light pulse with the different frequency components and propagating in parallel to be incident on a non-periodic phase jump device to obtain non-periodic spectral phase jumps, forming a phase grating effect to obtain two ±1-order diffracted pulses having opposite group delays, and introducing frequency dependent relative delay for the different spectral components in the two diffracted pulses.

  • Patent number: 11281070
    Abstract: A device for high-speed real-time sampling of mid-infrared ultrafast light signals includes a time domain amplification unit and a detection unit. The time domain amplification unit is used to perform sampling and time domain amplification on signal light incident to the time domain amplification unit, and convert the signal light of a mid-infrared band into a near-infrared/visible band. The detection unit is used to receive and record information of the to-be-detected signal light processed by the time domain amplification unit to realize high-speed real-time sampling and measurement of the mid-infrared ultrafast light signal. The present disclosure can accurately obtain subpicosecond transient characteristics of the light signal, breaks through the capacity limit to the response rate of a traditional photoelectric detector, the bandwidth of the oscilloscope and the like, and is applicable to femtosecond-level mid-infrared ultrafast light signals.
