Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Dispersive time stretch has made many ultrafast applications possible owing to its high frame rate, as compared to conventional spectroscopies. By further introducing a converging time lens, this spectroscopy can resolve arbitrary emission spectra within the aperture. However, a spectral resolution of tens of picometers hinders its high-precision application. There are two limitations: the temporal aperture of the acquired signal and the actual acquisition bandwidth. To overcome these restrictions, two approaches were developed. First, a large-aperture time lens, with higher-order dispersion compensation, is used to overcome the fundamental limit of the time-bandwidth product. Second, asynchronous optical sampling, based on two frequency combs, overcomes the technical limit of the acquisition bandwidth. As a result, in this study, time-stretch spectroscopy achieved a 1-pm spectral resolution, 24-nm observation bandwidth, and 1-kHz frame rate. Moreover, it was used to observe some spectral dynamics of the random lasing process and devices with narrow spectral widths. This scheme provides essential improvement for time-stretch spectroscopy to achieve high precision. (C) 2022 Optica Publishing Group under the terms of the Optica Open Access Publishing Agreement
