Abstract :
We introduce a scheme to overcome the challenges of ancillae preparation in traditional spectrally-sheared interferometry techniques for pulse characterization. The approach, applied to two-dimensional spectral shearing interferometry, reliably characterizes few-optical-cycle pulses from UV to IR.
