Title A dispersionless transmission grating based michelson interferometer for the characterization of harmonics
Creator Goulielmakis, Eleftherios
Abstract A new Michelson type interferometer, based on a transmission grating beam splitter, is presented and studied in detail. It posses dispersionless characteristics and flat spectral response, over the UV- XUV spectral range. Three variant configurations of the interferometer are examined, using ray tracing techniques. It was found that when certain imaging conditions are preserved, the interferometer exhibits extremely low dispersion and therefore its applicable for the temporal characterization of harmonics, and harmonic superpositions. Further, the interferometer is experimentally employed for the temporal characterization, of the third harmonic of a Ti:Saph laser. The results obtained, are coincide with those acquired with a conventional Michelson interferometer, as well as with the general conclusions of the ray tracing calculations
