Abstract

A multilevel diffraction grating in the resonance-domain is employed for femtosecond pulse compression based on the principle of temporal superresolution. As the number of levels increases, effects of included higher diffraction orders become more significant. This results in tough challenge for the use of multilevel diffractive optical elements for pulsed light even at the design stage.
