"Design and calibration of zero-additional-phase SPIDER" P. Baum and E. RiedleJ. Opt. Soc. B 22, 1875 - 1883 (2005) Abstract: Zero-additional-phase SPIDER (spectral phase interferometry for direct electric-field re-construction) is a novel technique to measure the temporal shape and phase of ultrashort optical pulses directly at the interaction point of a spectroscopic experiment. The scheme is suitable for an extremely wide wavelength region from the ultraviolet to the near infrared. In this work we present a comprehensive description of the experimental setup and design guidelines to effectively apply the technique to various wavelengths and pulse durations. The calibration of the setup and procedures to check the consistency of the measurement are discussed in detail. We show experimental data for various center wavelengths and pulse durations to verify the applicability to a wide range of pulse parameters.
