We report computer-controlled femtosecond polarization pulse shaping where intensity,
momentary frequency, and light polarization are varied as functions of time. For the first time …

We present a shaper scheme that fully controls the spectral phase, amplitude, and
polarization of femtosecond laser pulses. In particular, it enables independent manipulation …

We demonstrate the generation and complete characterization of femtosecond laser pulses
which change their intensity, frequency, and light polarization almost arbitrarily within a …

A novel liquid crystal display (LCD) with 640 stripes was successfully implemented and
investigated for femtosecond pulse shaping. As compared to previously used devices, the …

The spectral polarization of an ultrashort pulse is fully controlled by a novel pulse shaper
design, including three liquid-crystal spatial light modulator arrays at three different …

We report what is to our knowledge the first demonstration of programmable femtosecond
pulse shaping that manipulates both temporal amplitude and phase. With two commercially …

We describe the experimental implementation of feedback-optimized femtosecond laser
pulse shaping. A frequency-domain phase shaper is combined with different pulse …

We review the field of femtosecond pulse shaping, in which Fourier synthesis methods are
used to generate nearly arbitrarily shaped ultrafast optical wave forms according to user …

We demonstrate a new pulse-shaping technique, using an acousto-optic modulator as a
spatial modulator in a zero-dispersion delay line. Compared with existing techniques, this …

We report programmable shaping of femtosecond optical pulses by use of a multielement
liquid-crystal modulator to manipulate the phases of spatially dispersed optical frequency …
