  • Abstract
    A simple and high-speed chromatic dispersion measurement of an optical device is presented. The dispersion parameter is measured at the longer-wavelength region of 1.6-1.9 μm by utilising the two-photon absorption of the optical pulse in an Si avalanche photodiode. The results obtained are in good agreement with those from the interferometric method.
