Optical Pulse Compression [PDF]
Topical Meeting on Ultrafast Phenomena, 1974 The utilization of single-mode optical fibers as the nonlinear element in a pulse compression system has overcome several technical difficulties which have prevented the general use of pulse compression as a laboratory technique. The optical fiber based pulse compressor is particularly well matched to c.w. mode-locked lasers.

Dispersion Caused by the Penetration Effect in X-ray Compressors
Photonics, 2023 Chirped X-ray pulse compression is a promising approach for generating ultra-short X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) pulses. The design of X-ray pulse compressors requires the careful control of group delay dispersion (GDD), which plays a critical role in
