Arbitrary Energy‐Preserving Control of Optical Pulse Trains and Frequency Combs through Generalized Talbot Effects

Abstract: Trains of optical pulses and optical‐frequency combs are periodic waveforms with deep implications for a wide range of scientific disciplines and technological applications. Recently, phase‐only signal‐processing techniques based upon the theory of Talbot self‐imaging have been demonstrated as simple and practical means for user‐defined periodicity control of optical pulse trains and combs. The resulting schemes implement a desired repetition period control without introducing any noise or distortion, while id… Show more

“…This concept has simulated both fundamental research regarding, for example, the Arago spot [9], two waves interferometers [10], and temporal Fresnel diffraction in fiber optics [11]. But also successful applications such as theory of temporal imaging [12], dispersive Fourier transform [13,14], highrepetition rate sources, and related applications of the Talbot effect [15], and so many others.…”

“…In practice, the energy consumption is just limited by the practical insertion loss of the phase-only filter, which can be optimized to be particularly low. This methodology has enabled remarkable improvements in energy efficiency as compared to photonic processing schemes based upon either nonlinear optics or even linear arbitrary (generally, amplitude-dependent) optical filtering 23 , 24 .…”

“…More recently, simultaneous repetition-rate control of optical pulses and frequency combs has been achieved based on generalized Talbot self-imaging 11,12 . The technique utilizes phase-only signal processing operations which usually include combinations of temporal phase modulation and spectral phase filtering.…”
