Abstract

In this paper we report the use of a starch as a non-linear medium for characterising ultrashort pulses. The starch suspension in water is sandwiched between a slide holder and a cover-slip and placed within the sample plane of the nonlinear microscope. This simple arrangement enables direct measurement of the pulse where they interact with the sample.
