  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. Several pulse distortion analysis methods have been recently used to quantify pulse errors. We have used PGFROG to retrieve the spectral phase and intensity for a variety of distorted pulses. The measurements were done in a single shot mode to allow the analysis of pulse-to-pulse statistics.
