Abstract
A statistical spectral stability measurement technique for supercontinuum sources (SC) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. Decorrelating short-term and long-term behaviour, a commercial source with plusmn0.03 dB spectral stability exhibits plusmn0.01dB short-term stability with 89.36% probability
