104 MHz rate single-shot recording with subpicosecond resolution using temporal imaging.

We demonstrate temporal imaging for the measurement and characterization of optical arbitrary waveforms and events. The system measures single-shot 200 ps frames at a rate of 104 MHz, where each frame is time magnified by a factor of -42.4x. Impulse response tests show that the system enables 783 fs resolution when placed at the front end of a 20 GHz oscilloscope. Modulated pulse trains characterize the system's impulse response, jitter, and frame-to-frame variation.
