Abstract :
A reconfigurable incoherent signal processing system for ultrafast arbitrary-order signal differentiation is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The successive time derivatives of a 42-ps Gaussian-like pulse intensity waveform were successfully achieved up to the third-order using the same platform.
