Abstract
The authors have measured the group velocity dispersion of bulk V -groove semiconductor lasers and multiple quantum well lasers operating at a wavelength near 1.5 μm. The data yield group velocity dispersions in the range from -0.63 to -0.95 μm-1 and indicate that material dispersion is the dominant factor in the diodes. Cross-correlation traces of transmitted femtosecond pulses confirm the measured values of dispersion
