Abstract:Square-wave pulse generation with a variable duty ratio can be realized with the help of ideas of Talbot array illuminators formulated for binary phase gratings. A binary temporal phase modulation of CW laser field propagating through a group-delay-dispersion circuit of the fractional Talbot length P/Q results in a well defined sequence of square-wave-form pulses. When P = 1 a duty ratio of the pulses D is 1/2 for Q = 4 and 1/3 for Q = 3 and 6. Maximum intensity of the pulses doubles and triples compared to th… Show more
