Abstract :
Shaper-assisted autocorrelation is developed to characterize single-cycle pulses. The correlation signal show significantly improved signal-to-noise ratio and thus accuracy in pulse characterization when compared to cross-correlation obtained by splitting the spectral components of the pulse.
