Abstract

Multi-pulse interferometric frequency-resolved optical gating (MI-FROG) or multi-pulse longitudinal interferometry with frequency-resolved optical gating is promising as a powerful real-time diagnostic tool for ultrafast dynamics. The unique abilities of MI-FROG center around its inherently differential nature: ultrafast changes in the time-domain phase of a laser pulse are measured to all orders while discriminating against shot-to-shot fluctuations in the pulse structure. The real-time nature of MI-FROG allows immediate and direct observation of pump-pulse time scale dynamics without computational analysis. Finally, iterative computational techniques similar to those used in FROG can elucidate femtosecond detail from the MI-FROG trace.
