Abstract

A micromechanically controlled Gires–Tournois interferometer (micro-GTI) is proposed for a tunable dispersive medium for use in optical-pulse compression. Its dispersive properties, which are controlled by comb-drive micromirror actuation, were theoretically and experimentally evaluated to verify its capability to generate ultra-short optical pulses. Pulse compression performed using this micro-GTI generated nearly transform-limited pulses with a duration of 0.43 ps.
