  • Abstract
    Bistability in a diode laser amplifier has been successfully exploited for an indirect measurement of the dispersive nonlinearity coefficient n2. The results are in good agreement with the corresponding data for bulk semiconductors. The best fit of the experimental hysteresis cycle confirms the validity of the technique
