Electrooptical generation and detection of femtosecond electrical transients

Auston, D.H., Nuss, M.C.·1988·IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics

Abstract

Recent work on the generation of ultrashort electrical pulses by optical rectification of femtosecond optical pulses in electrooptic materials is summarized. This technique, which is called electrooptic Cherenkov radiation, is described in detail with particular emphasis on the effects of dispersion due to coupling to lattice vibrational resonances. Recent experimental results in lithium tantalate are described which illustrate these effects. When the duration of the exciting femto second optical pulse is comparable to the period of the lattice vibrations, a pronounced ringing is observed in the electrical waveforms. A coupled oscillator model is used to develop a theory that accurately accounts for these effects and can be used to predict the limiting speed of response and generation efficiency of different electrooptic materials.>

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
