  • Abstract
    The measurement of the electric field of short optical pulses is an active domain of research and development as many applications demand accurate characterization. Characterization techniques can be classified according to general concepts that condition their properties and implementation. The concepts of spectrography, interferometry and tomography are reviewed and examples of corresponding techniques are presented.
