Abstract :
The paper reports on the demonstration of pulsewidth control of intense femtosecond pulses by use of novel dispersive device consisting of an autocloned, two-dimensional (2-D) photonic crystal. 2-D autocloned photonic crystal that is used here for this application has dielectric multilayer coatings with periodical patterns on each layer.
