Abstract :
Independent, absolute measurements of the pump, signal and idler carrier-envelope phase slip frequencies in a Ti:sapphire-pumped femtosecond optical parametric oscillator are demonstrated by characterisation against a common super-continuum reference derived from a photonic crystal fibre.
