Cabled SIECOR graded-index fibres show a material dispersion coefficient of (107+or-4) ps/km.nm and a modal dispersion of 200 ps to 300 ps after 1.574 km fibre length, both at lambda =851 nm.enoptical dispersionoptical fibresspectrometersmodal dispersiongrating spectrometermaterial dispersion coefficienttime domain pulse dispersion measurementsgaalas laser diodespectral halfwidth filtergraded index fibre621conference paper
