Abstract :
Summary form only given. We report a single-shot approach for generating the sonogram of an ultrashort pulse using two-photon absorption in a standard CCD camera. In the experimental apparatus a laser pulse is introduced into a spectral decomposition setup consisting of a diffraction grating and a cylindrical lens telescope, imaging the surface of the grating onto the CCD array.
