The characterization of femtosecond pulses, which play a major role in precision spectroscopy, is challenging due to the lack of an accurate time reference on the ultrafast scale. Therefore the pulse has to be referenced by itself. In the scope of transferring a near-infrared frequency comb with 100 MHz repetition rate to the XUV-regime via high harmonic generation (HHG), 80 W femtosecond pulses are characterized in the time and frequency domain before the HHG stage using a FROG set-up. [1] The pulse is overlapped with a delayed copy of itself in a nonlinear crystal and the generated second harmonic is detected by a Czerny-Turner spectrometer. The shape, duration and power spectral density of the laser pulse are retrieved from the recorded FROG traces (intensities dependent of frequency and delay) using a noise removal protocol and the ePIE algorithm [2].
