    Abstract

    A spectrally efficient multiheterodyne scheme is applied for the independent measurement of the spectral phase profiles of three distinct semiconductor frequency combs. The amount of quadratic and cubic phase is quantified for each source, providing insight on the dispersive properties of the semiconductor gain and the fiberized laser cavity. This information is vital for the optimization and expansion of the spectral bandwidth of such sources.
