摘要
We demonstrate the compression of femtosecond-pulse sequences by phase-modulating resonators, such as Gires-Tournois interferometers. The experiments are based on the precompensation of the complex phase response of the resonator by a high-resolution liquid-crystal pulse shaper. This method can be utilized for lowering peak intensities at critical points in optical setups, as well as for encryption or decryption of ultrashort pulses. (C) 2003 Optical Society of America.
