21 Towards Carrier-Envelope Phase Stabilized Pulses Origin of phase stabilization Laser Reconstruction process
22 Time Domain Frequency Comb Theory Ideal case: Pulse circulating in cavity of length L with carrier frequency ω c Output is a sequence of nearly identical pulses separated by the round trip time T=2L/v g where is the mean group velocity But v g v p => carrier/envelope phase shift φ per pulse Frequency Domain v g v p Spectrum is a comb of laser modes spaced by ω r centered at ω c Continuous shift => offset frequency ω 0 = φ/t from being exact harmonics of the repetition frequency ω n =nω r +ω 0
23 Frequency Comb Theory ω r easy to measure ω 0 need more than one optical octave: ω n =nω r +ω 0 Red side, mode number n ω n = nω r + ω 0 Blue side, mode number 2n ω 2n = 2nω r + ω 0 Beat them together: 2ω n - ω 2n = 2(nω r + ω 0 )- 2nω r + ω 0 = ω 0 Stabilizing ω r and ω 0 will stabilize f frequency comb
24 Light from laser oscillator Detects ω 0
25 Stabilizing ω 0 and ω r n=n(e) control ω 0 control ω r
