Abstract

Our study concerns the first complete characterization of the space-time coupling effects produced by the AOPDF in UV range using spatially and spectrally resolved Fourier-transform interferometry (SSI). This communication will be dedicated to showing the spatio-temporal coupling effects inherent to the AOPDF which are present for a range of shaped pulses that are commonly used in quantum control experiments.
