Abstract :
We generate a broadband similariton of 50 THz bandwidth, characterize it, and experiment its applications to the signal synthesis and analysis problems in femtosecond timescale, particularly for the similariton pulse temporal and spectral compression, similariton-based spectral interferometry and femtosecond oscilloscope.
