Arbitrary-Order Bandwidth-Tunable Temporal Differentiator Using a Programmable Optical Pulse Shaper

We experimentally demonstrate an arbitrary-order bandwidth-tunable differentiator using a programmable optical pulse shaper, which is based on spatial diffraction and liquid crystal modulation. The impact of bandwidth of optical pulse shaper on output power and pulsewidth of differentiation is theor...
