N2 - The increasing complexity of specialty optical fibers, such as dispersion compensating and photonic crystal fibers, requires the development of high precision measurement techniques. Phase-sensitive Optical Low-Coherence Reflectometry is very well suited because it permits complex reflectivity measurements. This technique allows for an accurate and direct characterization of birefringence and group-velocity dispersion from a single measurement of short fiber samples.
