Abstract
A method of 2-dimensional (2-D) space-scanned (in the x-y plane) spatiotemporal double-slit interference is used to reconstruct the 2-D pulse-front (in the x-y-t domain) of a femtosecond pulsed beam. While comparing with recent other methods, the method possesses two advantages: no reference pulse/beam is required anymore, and an arbitrarily distorted pulse-front, not just pulse-front tilt and pulse-front curvature, could be detected. Meanwhile, the influence of different factors of unknown pulsed beams and optical elements on the measurement reliability is also analyzed for engineering applications.
