Abstract
Dispersive characteristic of lenses is studied both theoretically and experimentally in the presence of spatial aberration, chromatic, and centration errors. Angular dispersion, major parameter that affects different parameters of ultrashort pulsed beams, is different under varying alignment conditions, e.g., angular tilt or lateral shifts of lenses with or without centration errors. A theoretical description is presented to account angular dispersion for a sequence of tilted chromatic lenses with centration errors. Third-order aberration analysis is also carried out to estimate different Seidel coefficients for tilted and laterally shifted lenses. A cw modelocked Nd:glass laser oscillator delivering 200 fs laser pulses at 100 MHz has been used to perform experiment, using spatial/spectral interferometer, to demonstrate varying angular dispersions under different alignment conditions of the lenses.
