abstract:A bandwidth-limited pulse (also known as Fourier-transform-limited pulse, or more commonly, transform-limited pulse) is a pulse of a wave that has the minimum possible duration for a given spectral bandwidth. Optical pulses of this type can be generated by mode-locked lasers.
The methodofgeneratingtransformlimitedpulseusingfilter is analyzed, and the optimalbandwidth of the filter required to get transform limited pulse for given optical source is obtained.
