| Abstract | We report on the application of planar photoconductive switches on wide-gap dielectrics to measurements of the intensity autocorrelation of femtosecond pulses at 270 nm. In our scheme, metal layers were deposited on the wafers of fused silica and magnesium fluoride (bandgaps of approximately 8 eV and 11 eV, respectively). These large bandgaps allow for the observation of two-photon conductivity for pulses with wavelengths below 300 nm. The third harmonic of the output of a Ti:sapphire regenerative laser system was injected into a Michelson-type autocorrelator, and the output was focused by a mirror onto the structure. The interferometric single-scan and accumulated (averaged) autocorrelation traces are presented for the SiO/sub 2/ substrate. The averaged trace fitted by a Gaussian function corresponds to pulses of 380-fs duration. The photocurrent became saturated for incident pulse energies above 400-600 pJ for the SiO/sub 2/ wafer. We have also made measurements using MgF/sub 2/ substrates and observed nonlinear response in the photoconductivity, but the signal and saturation current were found to be lower, which resulted in noisier autocorrelation traces with reduced contrast ratio. The simplicity of the device and its sensitivity are promising for accurate ultrashort pulse duration measurements in the UV and should allow for pulse characterization at wavelengths below 200 nm. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
