to the preexisting fiber birefringence. The polarimetric method for group delay ripple measurements does not suffer any resolution limitation, except of course the spectral resolution of the laser source, which is at least two orders of magnitude smaller than the resolution of the modulation phase shift method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
