Abstract:
This paper extends the investigation of zone plates to the temporal case. By exploiting the space-time duality between the paraxial diffraction of beams in space and the linear dispersion of optical pulses, we present the time-domain analog of a multiple imaging system. The temporal system is created by using a digital chirp signal generator together with two dispersive delay lines. The key motivation is the potential application of the temporal zone plate to multiple compressions of pulses in dispersive lines.
