over the past few years, there was a convergence among the fields of ultrafast technological know-how, nonlinear optics, optical frequency metrology, and precision laser spectroscopy. those fields were constructing mostly independently because the beginning of the laser, achieving amazing degrees of functionality. at the ultrafast frontier, pulses of just a couple of cycles lengthy were produced, whereas in optical spectroscopy, the precision and backbone have reached one half in even though those achievements seem to be thoroughly disconnected, advances in nonlinear optics supplied the fundamental hyperlink among them. The ensuing convergence has enabled exceptional advances within the keep watch over of the electrical box of the pulses produced by means of femtosecond mode-locked lasers. The corresponding spectrum comprises a comb of sharp spectral strains with well-defined frequencies. those new strategies and features are commonly known as “femtosecond comb know-how. ” they've got had dramatic effect at the assorted fields of precision dimension and severe nonlinear optical physics. The historic historical past for those advancements is supplied within the Foreword via of the pioneers of laser spectroscopy, John corridor and Theodor Hänsch. certainly the advancements defined during this ebook have been foreshadowed by way of Hänsch’s early paintings within the Seventies whilst he used picosecond pulses to illustrate the relationship among the time and frequency domain names in laser spectroscopy. This paintings complemented the advances in precision laser stabilization built by means of Hall.
