Abstract
Proper characterization of nonlinear crystals is essential for designing single photon sources. We show a technique for dispersion characterization of a nonlinear material by making use of phase matching in the process of parametric down conversion. Our method is demonstrated on an exemplary periodically poled potassium titanyl phosphate crystal phase-matched for nm to nm and nm. We show a procedure to characterize the dispersion in the range of to nm by means of only one spectrometer for the UV-visible range.
