Abstract :
A tuneable mode-locked dye laser has been used to measure the frequency response of a multimode fibre as a function of wavelength in the 850 nm region. The narrow spectral width of the dye laser gives an improved accuracy for large length-bandwidth product fibres. The results are compared with those obtained using both pulsed and CW semiconductor lasers
