摘要：

A frequency modulation which is monotonic in time over a portion of an optical pulse can be utilized together with a dispersive delay line to obtain temporal compression of the pulse envelope. Short pulses (picosecond range) passed through an optical Kerr liquid receive a self-phase-modulation which exhibits a frequency sweep in the region of maximum intensity, the slope in time being proportional to the propagation distance. Frequency spreads of the order of 103 cm-1 are obtainable and hence significant compression ratios should be possible, giving rise to very short pulses in the range of 10-14 to 10-13 sec. © 1969 The American Institute of Physics.
