    Abstract: A waveform measurement device includes an input spectrum acquisition unit for acquiring an input intensity spectrum being an intensity spectrum of pulsed light, an optical element inputting the pulsed light and outputting light having an intensity spectrum corresponding to a phase spectrum of the pulsed light, an output spectrum acquisition unit for acquiring an output intensity spectrum being an intensity spectrum of the light output from the optical element, and a phase spectrum determination unit for determining the phase spectrum of the pulsed light by comparing an output intensity spectrum calculated when the pulsed light having an input intensity spectrum and a virtual phase spectrum is assumed to be input to the optical element with the output intensity spectrum acquired in the output spectrum acquisition unit. The phase spectrum determination unit sets the virtual phase spectrum by deforming the control phase spectrum.

    Abstract: A dispersion measuring device includes a pulse forming unit, a light detection unit, a control unit, and an arithmetic operation unit. The control unit selectively outputs a first phase pattern and a second phase pattern. The pulse forming unit forms an optical pulse train from initial pulsed light, the optical pulse train including a plurality of optical pulses having a time difference from each other and having different center wavelengths from each other. The light detection unit detects a temporal waveform of the optical pulse train. The arithmetic operation unit estimates a wavelength dispersion amount of a measurement object based on a feature amount of the temporal waveform of the optical pulse train. When the first phase pattern is output, a pulse having a long center wavelength is generated first. When the second phase pattern is output, a pulse having a short center wavelength is generated first.

    Abstract: A dispersion measurement apparatus includes a pulse forming unit, an imaging unit, and an operation unit. The pulse forming unit forms a light pulse train including a plurality of light pulses having time differences and center wavelengths different from each other from a light pulse output from a pulsed laser light source. The imaging unit includes an image sensor capable of performing imaging at an imaging interval shorter than a minimum peak interval of the light pulse train, and images a light pulse train passed through a measurement object to generate imaging data. The operation unit receives the imaging data, detects a temporal waveform of the light pulse train for each pixel of the image sensor, and estimates a wavelength dispersion amount of the measurement object for each pixel of the image sensor based on a feature value of the temporal waveform.

    Abstract: A time response measurement apparatus includes a pulse formation unit, an attenuation unit, a waveform measurement unit, and an analysis unit. The pulse formation unit generates first pulsed light including a wavelength of pump light, second pulsed light including a wavelength of probe light, and third pulsed light including the wavelength of the pump light and the wavelength of the probe light, on a common optical axis. The attenuation unit transmits the first pulsed light, the second pulsed light, and the third pulsed light output from a sample arranged on the optical axis after being incident on the sample. An attenuation rate for the pump light is larger than an attenuation rate for the probe light. The analysis unit obtains a time response of the sample based on temporal waveforms of the first pulsed light, the second pulsed light, and the third pulsed light having passed through the attenuation unit.

    Abstract: An optical measurement device includes a light pulse source, a light separator unit, a wave synthesizer unit, an optical detection unit, and a measurement unit. The light pulse source outputs a plurality of light pulses having different temporal waveforms and different center wavelengths. The light separator unit spatially separates the light pulses and causes the light pulses to be incident on a measurement object. The wave synthesizer unit synthesizes the light pulses reflected by the measurement object or transmitted through the measurement object and emits the synthesized light pulses onto one optical path. The optical detection unit receives the light pulses emitted from the wave synthesizer unit and outputs a temporal waveform signal of the light pulses. The measurement unit measures timings when the light pulses each are received by the optical detection unit or a difference between the timings on a basis of the temporal waveform signal.

    Abstract: A data generating device sets an initial candidate solution of an intensity spectrum function, a phase spectrum function, and an initial temperature and a cooling rate, generates a neighborhood solution, transforms a first waveform function of a frequency domain including the neighborhood solution and the phase spectrum function into a second waveform function of a time domain including a time-intensity waveform function and a time-phase waveform function and calculates an evaluation value representing a degree of difference between the time-intensity waveform function and the desired time-intensity waveform, sets the neighborhood solution as an n-th candidate solution for a certain probability, and lowers the temperature on the basis of the cooling rate. A decrease in the temperature acts in a direction in which the probability P is lowered when the evaluation value of the neighborhood solution is worse than the evaluation value of the candidate solution.
