本文將詳細介紹傅立葉轉換光脈衝塑型器的基本架構與設計原理，以期讀者了解傳統光脈衝塑型的限制，並從而點出任意光波形產生的獨特性。本文的第二部分將著重於任意光波形產生的新面向以及兩大要素：逐線塑型與光頻梳光源。本文的最後一部分，將討論任意光波形產生在毫米波光子學上的應用。

The basic construction and design principle of a Fourier-transform optical pulse shaper is explained. The fundamental limitation and distinction between conventional pulse shaping and optical arbitrary waveform generation are noted. The new aspects and the two necessary constituents of optical arbitrary waveform generations are described. In the last part, applications of optical arbitrary waveform generation in millimeter-wave photonics are discussed.
