title: Spectral phase retrieval of 8 fs optical pulses at 600 nm by using a collinear autocorrelator with 300-μm-thick lithium triborate crystals.
abstract: We report on noniterative spectral phase retrieval of 1.1 nJ, 8 fs pulses at 600 nm by using 300-μm-thick lithium triborate crystals in a standard collinear autocorrelator with ≈2 min data acquisition time. This method is simple, sensitive, and immune to the spectral distortion and UV absorption of the linear and nonlinear optics.
