The operator controls all aspects of the light pulse, including cutoff wavelength (nm), energy level (Joules/cm2), pulse duration (milliseconds), pulse pattern (single, double, or triple), and delay time between pulses (milliseconds).
Figure 6 shows how the cutoff wavelength of the detector changes with the cooling temperature.
The types of measurements discussed included attenuation/ loss, chromatic dispersion, cross talk, cutoff wavelength, effective area, effective index, four-wave mixing efficiency, index of refraction profile, mode-field diameter, non-linear coefficients, polarization dependent loss and polarization-mode dispersion.
