Single-shot & high-contrast ultrafast pulse measurement
Overview
Wizzler products provide high contrast and single shot spectral phase and intensity measurements of nearly compressed ultrafast laser pulses.
Based on Self-Referenced Spectral Interferometry (SRSI), a unique technique invented and patented by FASTLITE, in which a reference pulse with a flat spectral phase is collinearly generated from the input pulse via cross-polarized wave generation (XPW). The spectral interference pattern allows direct retrieval of the spectral phase and intensity.
With a collinear geometry design, no beam splitter or delay line, Wizzler products are extremely easy to align. The SRSI technique is user-calibration free, enabling user-independent measurements.
SRSI provides more than 40 dB of temporal dynamic range. Unlike scanning techniques, this true single-shot approach is ideal to quantify pulse duration stability. Data logging enables real-time monitoring up to 10 Hz.
