Abstract: We propose focusing by a Fresnel zone plate into a pinhole as a cost-efficient, rugged component for wavelength selection in femto-second pulses. We show measurements of the frequency selectivity of a Fresnel zone plate for an ultra-broadband supercontinuum pulse. We verify that our zone plate does not considerably stretch the 65 fs laser pulses in time. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
