Advanced methods for the characterization of few-cycle light pulses: a comparison

We discuss and compare four methods for measuring the width and pulse profile of ultrashort pulses. For our comparison, we use stable sub-7 fs pulses from a Ti:sapphire oscillator. Interferometric autocorrelation,spectral phase interferometry for direct electric-field reconstruction (SPIDER), a spat...
