We introduce a self-referenced system that retrieves the full spatio-temporal profile of an ultrashort pulse using a Shack-Hartmann and second harmonic generation FROG. The key feature is the precise co-location of a spectral phase measurement at one spatial position with the spectrally resolved spatial measurements.more » « less

We generalize our method for propagating spatially chirped Gaussian beams to properly calculate the evolution of geometric spectral phase through a lens. By expanding the spectral phase around the local central frequency, we analytically calculate the spatio-temporal field. Applications to intentionally detuned pulse compressors are discussed.more » « less
