Title: Time-frequency spectrograms of optical pulses

Conference ·
OSTI ID:113494
 [1]
  1. Reed College, Portland, OR (United States). Dept. of Physics

The authors present a discussion of several different types of joint time-frequency distributions of optical pulses. Particular attention is paid to the Wigner distribution W(t,{omega}), as it is the fundamental distribution from which all others can be derived. They elucidate the relationship between the Wigner distribution and other spectrograms of current-interest, such as that obtained from frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG).
