摘要
A Fourier-optical analysis of the transformation of ultrashort light pulses by lenses is given. Inserting the material dispersion up to second order, we find a coupling between the temporal, spectral, and spatial properties of the light pulse. In general, this coupling leads to a drastic increase in pulse duration and width of the spatial intensity distribution in the focal plane of the lens, which can be avoided with the use of achromatic lens doublets. The results are discussed for Gaussian-shaped input pulses.
