The strong chromatic behavior associated with a conventional
diffractive lens is fully exploited to propose a novel optical device for pulse
shaping in the femtosecond regime. This device consists of two optical
elements: a spatially patterned circularly symmetric mask and a kinoform
diffractive lens, which are facing each other. The system performs a
mapping between the spatial position of the masking function expressed in
the squared radial coordinate and the temporal position in the output
waveform. This space-to-time conversion occurs at the chromatic focus of
the diffractive lens, and makes it possible to tailor the output central
wavelength along the axial location of the output point. Inspection of the
validity of our device is performed by means of computer simulations
involving the generation of femtosecond optical packets [-]
