We have experimentally demonstrated the feasibility of direct compression, or stretching and
recompression of laser pulses in a very wide temporal time scale spanning 10's fs to~ 1 ps …

We introduce a new device for group and phase delay steering of femtosecond pulse trains
that makes use of cascaded, electrically driven, nematic liquid-crystal cells. Based on this …

By using the strong nonlinear effect and ultrafast electronic response of cholesteric liquid
