Abstract :
We have measured the group-delay dispersion of femtosecond optics using a compact white-light cross-correlator based on a Michelson interferometer. The dispersion characteristics of broadband tunable mirrors, broadband chirped mirrors, and a borosilicate glass plate are characterized in the wavelength range from 650 nm to 1050 nm.
