femtoControl
femtoControl is a compact motorized dispersion
control unit for optimization of the duration of
femtosecond laser pulses in the spectral range of
Ti:Sapphire lasers1).
Femtosecond pulses which pass through any kind
of optical material experience dispersion that can
lead to temporal broadening of the ultrashort pulses
with subsequent reduction in peak power. Thus, the
experimental conditions are changed and degraded.
femtoControl compensates for material dispersion
by applying the inverse amount of dispersion to
the pulse. This is generated by a pair of prisms on
motorized translation stages allowing continuous
adjustment of the pulse length.
