description: A laboratory exercise has been developed in the frames of a  new course called "Advanced undergraduate laboratory in  femtosecond optics", which aims to study the dependence of  the dispersion of a prism pair on the positions of the  prisms. For the dispersion measurement we chose a relatively  simple technique, called white light spectral interferometry.  The prism pair consisting of two identical fused silica  prisms was placed in the sample arm of a Michelson- interferometer illuminated with a tungsten halogen lamp. The  interferograms were observed with a low resolution  spectrometer in order to have a wide detection range (200- 1100 nm). Measurements were performed by adjusting the  optical path length in the second prism. The data was  evaluated with the cosine-function fit method. Using the  formalism of Fork the phase derivatives were theoretically  calculated as well. The dependence of the dispersion  coefficients on the displacement of the second prism agree  well with the measurements. Using white light is advantageous  as its broad wavelength range facilitates the retrieval of  the spectral phase with high precision in a wide range.  Furthermore, white light sources are relatively low-cost and  safe in contrast to ultrashort laser sources. © COPYRIGHT  SPIE.
