This diploma thesis is focused on investigation of temporal characteristics of laser pulses generated by oscillator with Ti:Sapphire active laser medium. In terms of properties of laserinduced plasmas the beam quality is crucial, in particular laser pulse contrast ratio. A new prototype of third order autocorrelator was designed. Pulse contrast ratio measurement is based on sum frequency generation between pulse of fundamental wavelength and its frequency doubled replica. Dynamic range of presented autocorrelator is estimated to be up to 8×10^12 which is more than currently available commercial devices can offer.
