Abstract

It is shown theoretically that the use of accelerating spatiotemporal quasi-phase-matching (QPM) modulation patterns in media with parametric optical interactions makes it possible to generate a time-reversed replica of the pump pulse envelope in a frequency-converted signal. The conversion is dependent on the group-velocity mismatch between the fundamental and up-converted harmonics and controlled by the acceleration rate ( chirp ) of the QPM phase pattern. Analytical results are corroborated by numerical simulations.
