The ability to control and synthesise optical waveforms has been a longstanding goal in science and technology. Very recent developments in quantum optics, photonic bandgap fibres and fibre lasers have created a new and favourable conjuncture to successfully undertake optical waveform synthesis. In this project, we propose the first attempt to develop a compact and self-contained system that would synthesise arbitrary optical intensity waveforms, including attosecond pulses, with approaching the same degree of control and flexibility as we have in synthesising electronic waves. The advent of such a synthesiser would create new and exciting opportunities in a variety of photonics-related fields, with the potential of making an impact in photonic technology as lasting as that of the frequency synthesiser in electronics.

控制和合成光波形的能力一直是科学和技术的长期目标。量子光学、光子带隙光纤和光纤激光器的最新发展为成功地进行光学波形合成创造了新的有利条件。在这个项目中，我们提出了第一次尝试开发一个紧凑和独立的系统，将合成任意的光强度波形，包括阿秒脉冲，接近相同程度的控制和灵活性，因为我们在合成电子波。这种合成器的出现将在各种光子学相关领域创造新的和令人兴奋的机会，有可能对光子技术产生与电子学中的频率合成器一样持久的影响。
