Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel scheme for an all-reflective FROG device using a near-90° retro-reflecting mirror for the complete single-shot measurement of intensity and phase of ultra-short laser pulses. The proposed device has several advantages, such as (1) it is an all-reflective setup, hence no added material dispersion; (2) it is simple and free from alignment disturbances; and (3) the temporal resolution and temporal range of the device can be tuned as per requirement. The proposed device was set up to measure mode-locked ultra-short laser pulses generated from a Ti:Sapphire laser oscillator. Dispersion-broadened laser pulses, obtained by passing the oscillator pulses through a 30 cm long Nd:glass rod, were also characterized, and the group velocity dispersion parameter value of the glass rod was estimated.
