Abstract

We compare the results of measurements of the nonlinearity of high-power optical fiber powermeters (OFPMs) by two national metrology institutes (NMIs): the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST-USA) and the National Metrology Institute of Japan/National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (NMIJ/AIST-Japan) at a wavelength of $1480 nm$ . The nonlinearity and range discontinuity of a commercial OFPM were measured from $1 mW$ to $500 mW$ by use of a superposition method (both laboratories) and from $1 mW$ to $250 mW$ by use of a comparison method (NMIJ only). Measurement results showed largest differences of less than 1.6 parts in $10^{3}$ , which is within the combined expanded ( $k = 2$ ) uncertainty for both laboratories.
