Automated Control of Amplified Pulse Duration Using the Dazzler™ / DazScope™ Solution

Download Whitepaper
Pulse shaping systems are now widely used by the ultrafast laser community for applications ranging from coherent control to multi-photon microscopy. Of particular interest is the ability to directly drive the pulse shaper using the output signal of an experiment, for instance, favoring a given quantum path, intensifying fluorescence, or minimizing pulse duration. The DazzlerTM pulse shaping systems are particularly well suited to these types of control experiments. In this application note, the basic principle of the DazScope is described and its performance is demonstrated. It is used in conjunction with the Dazzler acousto-optic pulse shaper, which provides accurate amplitude and phase control of ultrafast pulses. When the DazScope and Dazzler are used together the pulse shaping conditions can be automatically driven by the experimental results.
