Background technology
Laser pulse constantly develops to shorter stronger direction, and pulse width has broken through femtosecond and entered Ah second's epoch.But when laser pulse is short to the cycle magnitude, it is consistent that the phase place of electric-field carrier and envelope just can not be regarded as.Obtain more significant single chirped pulse, the CEP of seed laser is stabilized in certain scope.
At present, adopt the CEP measurement mechanism on monochromatic light road to come in the world mostly to measuring than macro-energy low repeatability laser pulse (referring to technology [1] Masayuki Kakehata etc. formerly, " Single-shot measurement of carrier-envelope phase changes by spectralinterferometry ", Optic Letters Vol, 26, No.18,1436-1438 (2001)).Its method is that ultrashort pulse is injected photonic crystal fiber (or white stone) spectrum widening and obtained super continuous white light.Frequency-doubling crystal is to the low-frequency component frequency multiplication in the white light, then the radio-frequency component of frequency doubled light and white light is interfered, obtain having the interference fringe of CEP information, with the stripe information of spectrometer in record a period of time that connects on computers, stripe information is carried out data processing can obtain the jitter conditions of interior CEP during this period of time.Concrete index path is referring to Fig. 2, and incident light focuses on through convex lens 14 and beats on white stone 15, and the broadening light of outgoing is injected barium metaborate (β-BaB successively through convex lens 16 collimations 2O is designated hereinafter simply as BBO) crystal 17 and Glan prism 18, select to finish interference through frequency multiplication and polarization, to get at last in the slit of spectrometer 12, computing machine 13 links to each other with spectrometer 12, and interference fringe is gathered in real time.Its light path design is simply compact, and when not considering environmental impact, the error of introducing is less.But the shortcoming of this monochromatic light drive test amount technology is:
