41. Above 650 nm in the WLC the XPM artifact signal was broadened and decreased in magnitude. To extend the range of the chirp measurement to 730 nm (while keeping the same relative accuracy of the XPM artifact measurement), we had to further compress the pump pulse.
42. The time vector of the measured data is shifted for each wavelength according to the measured chirp. For the new time points we linearly interpolate the OD values between the OD values of the corresponding nearest neighbor time points.
