A dispersion measurement device includes a pulse forming unit, an optical detection unit, and an arithmetic operation unit. The pulse forming unit includes an SLM that presents a phase pattern, and forms an optical pulse train from the first optical pulse, the optical pulse train including a plurality of second optical pulses having a time difference from each other and having center wavelengths different from each other. The optical detection unit detects a temporal waveform of the optical pulse train. An optical component is arranged on an optical path between the pulse forming unit and the optical detection unit. The arithmetic operation unit estimates a wavelength dispersion amount of the optical component based on a feature amount of the temporal waveform. The phase pattern gives a group delay dispersion having a sign opposite to the group delay dispersion of the optical component to the first optical pulse.

An iterative Fourier transform unit of a modulation pattern calculation apparatus performs a Fourier transform on a waveform function including an intensity spectrum function and a phase spectrum function, performs a replacement of a temporal intensity waveform function based on a desired waveform after the Fourier transform, and then performs an inverse Fourier transform. The iterative Fourier transform unit performs the replacement using a result of multiplying a function representing the desired waveform by a coefficient. The coefficient has a value with which a difference between the function after the multiplication of the coefficient and the temporal intensity waveform function after the Fourier transform is smaller than a difference before the multiplication, and a ratio of the difference is smaller when an intensity is higher at each time of the function before the multiplication.

A dispersion measurement apparatus includes a pulse forming unit, a correlation optical system, a beam splitter, an operation unit, an imaging unit, a spatial filter unit, and a photodetector. The pulse forming unit forms a light pulse train including light pulses having time differences and different center wavelengths.

The spatial filter unit extracts light of a partial region of the other light pulse train. The correlation optical system outputs correlation light including a cross-correlation or an autocorrelation of the extracted light. The photodetector detects a temporal waveform of the correlation light. The operation unit estimates a wavelength dispersion amount in the measurement object based on a feature value of the temporal waveform.

A phase distribution is calculated such that modulated light has a predetermined intensity distribution on a target plane and displayed on a phase modulation plane, readout light enters the phase modulation plane so as to generate the modulated light. When calculating the phase distribution, a region on the phase modulation plane is divided into N regions A1 . . . AN, with sizes set such that integration values of an intensity distribution in the regions are equal to each other. Further, a region on the target plane is divided into N regions B1 . . . BN, with sizes set such that integration values of an intensity distribution in the regions are equal to each other. The phase distribution is calculated by obtaining an optical path length from the region An to the region Bn, and determining the phase of the region An based on the optical path length.

An optical pulse train generation device includes a storage unit and a characteristic setting unit. The storage unit stores a plurality of phase patterns in advance. The plurality of phase patterns are phase patterns for forming, from a first optical pulse, an optical pulse train including a plurality of second optical pulses having time differences therebetween and having different center wavelengths. Between the plurality of phase patterns, one or both of a first characteristic regarding the first optical pulse and a second characteristic regarding the optical pulse train are different. The characteristic setting unit sets the first characteristic and the second characteristic in response to the user's input. The storage unit stores the plurality of phase patterns in association with the first characteristic and the second characteristic. A spatial light modulator displays a phase pattern corresponding to the first characteristic and the second characteristic set by the characteristic setting unit.
