  • Abstract
    In this paper, we have demonstrated a white-light interferometric technique for characterisation of the dispersion, based on interferograms arising from Fresnel reflections at the sample surfaces. This technique has been shown to yield high-resolution measurements and has the potential for wide application in the characterisation of photonic materials.
