    Summary

    We present a new method for laser group delay dispersion retrieval using Multiphoton Intra-pulse Interference Phase Scan (MIIPS) data. This technique enhances accuracy and reduces experimental iterations by considering spectral amplitude, distinguishing complex pulse profiles.

    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Laser Physics
    • Ultrafast Science

    Background:

    • Accurate characterization of laser pulse properties, such as group delay dispersion (GDD), is crucial for ultrafast optics and nonlinear spectroscopy.
    • Traditional methods for GDD retrieval can be iterative and may struggle to differentiate complex spectral phase and amplitude profiles.
    • Multiphoton Intra-pulse Interference Phase Scan (MIIPS) is a powerful technique for characterizing ultrashort laser pulses.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a novel, highly accurate method for retrieving the group delay dispersion of laser pulses directly from MIIPS data.
    • To incorporate the spectral amplitude information of the laser pulse into the GDD retrieval process.
    • To provide a reliable feedback mechanism for assessing the accuracy of the GDD retrieval and to differentiate complex pulse profiles.

    Main Methods:

    • A new computational method was developed to analyze Multiphoton Intra-pulse Interference Phase Scan (MIIPS) data.
    • The method explicitly accounts for the spectral amplitude of the laser pulse during the group delay dispersion retrieval.
    • A direct feedback mechanism was integrated to assess the accuracy of the retrieved group delay dispersion.

    Main Results:

    • The developed method achieves high accuracy in retrieving group delay dispersion, minimizing the need for multiple experimental iterations.
    • The technique successfully distinguishes between laser pulses with different spectral phase and amplitude characteristics, even when their MIIPS traces appear similar on a phase-frequency map.
    • Direct feedback on retrieval accuracy is provided, enhancing confidence in the results.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel MIIPS-based method offers a more efficient and accurate approach to laser group delay dispersion characterization.
    • This technique is particularly advantageous for complex laser pulse profiles that challenge conventional retrieval methods.
    • The ability to discriminate between similar spectral profiles simplifies laser pulse characterization and optimization in ultrafast experiments.
