Dispersive multilayer coatings have found widespread use, particularly in the compensation of material dispersion in femtosecond oscillators and amplifiers. Other than prism or grating sequences, only chirped mirrors allow for the compensation of a much more general spectral dependence of the dispersion. The current state of the art in ultrabroadband mirror design for dispersion compensation is reviewed. Approaches to expand the utility of chirped-mirror coatings toward the coverage of an even-wider bandwidth beyond the optical octave are discussed.
色散多层膜涂层已得到广泛应用，尤其用于飞秒振荡器和放大器中材料色散的补偿。除了棱镜或光栅序列外，只有啁啾镜能够补偿更一般的色散光谱依赖性。本文综述了用于色散补偿的超宽带镜设计的当前技术水平。讨论了扩展啁啾镜涂层的应用范围以覆盖超过光学倍频程的更宽带宽的方法。
