Fast-Recovery of the Amplitude and Phase of Short Optical Pulses Using a Frequency-Swept Source Based Heterodyne Measurement

We propose a very fast heterodyne technique to recover the amplitude and phase of short optical pulses generated, e.g., by a mode-locked laser. A linearly swept frequency source is used to scan the entire optical spectrum of the mode-locked laser in a single continuous sweep. The beat signal is reco...
