We installed the 2 CVBG for compression after the amplifier.
We used an interferometric technique with a delay line and combining the two paths in a CCD to measure interferences... see interferences.avi video file
One can notice some misalignement at the end of the video.
After supressing the global shape of the superposed pulses, one measures the amplitude of the remaining fringes (peak-peak or standard deviation) each 250µm of the delay line (500µm of round-trip). one gets the interferences pulse shape with a FWHM of 6ps...
It seems that an 'after pulse' is visible in the interferences.
An other meausurement using a 2 photons photodiode will be used to confirm this measurement.
