Distributed dispersion measurements and control within continuously varying dispersion tapered fibres
We report the first continuous non-destructive measurement of dispersion along a fibre designed to have a continuously varying dispersion profile. This measurement highlights the flexibility of the measurement technique and illustrates the levels of accuracy [~ 0.05ps/(nm.km)] that can be achieved w...

Summary: | We report the first continuous non-destructive measurement of dispersion along a fibre designed to have a continuously varying dispersion profile. This measurement highlights the flexibility of the measurement technique and illustrates the levels of accuracy [~ 0.05ps/(nm.km)] that can be achieved when pulling long fibres with arbitrary dispersion profiles. |
