Bibliographic record
Abstract
The focusing of coherent light, modified by a spatial light modulator (SLM) based 4-$f$ pulse shaper, is discussed in the context of scalar diffraction theory. Diffractive effects (including space-time coupling) in SLMs may alter the size and shape of a subsequent laser focus. A numerical approach is used to investigate the effects of some common phase masks on the properties of the laser focus. The extreme case of an alternating phase mask is considered in some detail, as it clearly illustrates the effects of space-time coupling. The results are compared to a simple analytic model. The potential influence of SLM diffractive effects on multiphoton quantum control studies is discussed and some approaches to minimizing undesirable diffractive effects are suggested.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
