  • Abstract
    Mode delay and material dispersion limit the signal bandwidth of potential fiber communication systems. 200-ps pulses from a krypton laser, mode-locked at three different wavelengths, prove to be adequate for measuring both effects in relatively short fibers (33 m). The results are in good agreement with theory.
