Abstract :
In our research we constructed a spatio-temporal joint transform correlator (JTC) with an optically addressed liquid-crystal spatial light modulator, which is a hybrid system of a conventional spatial JTC and a temporal spectral filtering system, and has the ability to project the auto-correlation waveform of a light pulse spatially.
