Abstract

A traveling wave CS(2) Kerr cell has been used to shape optical pulses at 1.06 microm. The rise time of ~20 psec reported here is possiile because the group velocities for electrical and optical pulses are equal in CS(2) at 1.06 microm. An electrical pulse generated by a light activated semiconductor switch is used to drive the device. High contrast jitter-free operation appears to be possible.
