PROJECT INFORMATION

This project develops techniques for the measurement of spectral and nonlinear properties of optical fiber and components and develops wavelength calibration transfer standards in the near infrared region to help industry calibrate equipment. In collaboration with the NIST Time and Frequency Division, the project develops optical frequency combs for high-accuracy wavelength standards and studies the nonlinear properties of supercontinuum generation.
