We present a new, to the best of our knowledge, variant of the spectral-shearing interferometry method for characterizing ultrashort laser pulses. This original approach, called Doppler effect e-field replication (DEER), exploits the rotational Doppler effect for producing frequency shear and provides spectral shearing in the absence of frequency conversion, enabling operation in the ultraviolet spectral range. Evaluation of the DEER-spectral phase interferometry for direct electric field reconstruction setup reveals a phase reconstruction of great reliability. Possible improvements, benefits, and worthwhile prospects of the method are discussed.
