Abstract :
We demonstrate line-by-line pulse shaping control for optical arbitrary waveform generation (O-AWG). Independent manipulation of individual spectral lines from a mode-locked frequency comb leads to synthesis of user-specified ultrafast optical waveforms with unprecedented frequency resolution.
