A research team has developed an optical approach for creating and shaping gigahertz burst pulses at the same time.

The age and control of high-reiteration beats hold extraordinary commitment across different applications, including fast photography, laser handling, and acoustic wave age. The visualization of ultrafast phenomena and the enhancement of the efficiency of laser processing are two applications for which gigahertz (GHz) burst pulses, with intervals ranging from 0.01 to 10 nanoseconds, are particularly valuable. There are still obstacles to overcome when producing GHz burst pulses, such as the complexity of existing systems, a low throughput of pulse energy, and poor pulse interval tunability. Moreover, molding the spatial profile of every GHz burst beat faces constraints because of the
