Laser-beam temporal pulse shaping is examined using a technique based on beam deflection. The deflection is induced by encoding the beam with phase-modulated bandwidth and passing the beam through a diffraction grating. Pulse-shaping examples are modeled numerically to determine the resolution of this technique. Other applications using this method of spectral beam deflection are discussed.
