Abstract

We describe the use of picosecond InGaAsP injection lasers for measuring chromatic dispersion in single‐mode fibers in the 1.2‐ to 1.5‐μm spectral region. Injection lasers at various wavelengths and a single‐mode fiber‐to‐fiber switch are used in the pulse delay and pulse‐broadening measurements. The simplicity and the compactness make the setup useful for field measurements and quality control.
