Abstract :
Summary from only given. We present a novel method of pulse shaping using optical coherent transients (OCT´s) that expands on our previous work with temporally overlapped linear frequency chirps (TOLFCs) to produce true-time delay gratings. By using multiple TOLFCs in the programming process, multiple true time delay gratings are created that can be probed using a single pulse producing multiple echo pulses at the chosen time delays.
