Abstract
Provided is a light shaping device including: an intensity modulation unit that modulates a spectrum intensity of an optical pulse that is input light, and outputs the optical pulse of which a temporal width is narrowed as output light. The intensity modulation unit modulates the spectrum intensity of the optical pulse with a mask expressed by a starting end wavelength from a central wavelength of the input light and a wavelength width.
Claims22
A light shaping device comprising:
- an intensity modulator configured to modulate a spectrum intensity of an optical pulse that is input light, and to output the optical pulse of which a temporal width is narrowed as output light,
- wherein the intensity modulator modulates the spectrum intensity of the input light with a mask expressed by a starting end wavelength λr and a wavelength width W from the starting end wavelength λr.
A light shaping method comprising:
- modulating a spectrum intensity of an optical pulse that is input light, and outputting the optical pulse of which a temporal width is narrowed as output light,
- wherein in the modulating, the spectrum intensity of the input light is modulated with a mask expressed by a starting end wavelength λr and a wavelength width W from the starting end wavelength λr.
