title = "Generation of arbitrary sequences of ultrafast pulses with integrated-optic space-to-time optical processors and phase-only masks",
abstract = "We report a new approach to the generation of arbitrary sequences of ultrafast pulses using an integrated optics space-to-time optical processor. The processor combines a reflective arrayed waveguide grating multiplexer with a phase-only mask containing sets of pixels of constant phase separated by sets of pixels with phases alternating between 0 and π rad.",
