SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING HIGH ENERGY OPTICAL PULSES WITH ARBITRARY WAVEFORM

摘要

A system for generating an optical signal having a preselected waveform includes: a laser source; a first waveform generator configured to apply a first signal to the laser source to create a laser output; an intensity modulator configured to receive the laser output; a second waveform generator configured to apply a second signal to the intensity modulator, the intensity modulator being configured to generate a pre-distorted laser signal based on the second signal and the laser output.
