Abstract
A dispersion measuring device includes a pulse forming unit, a light detection unit, a control unit, and an arithmetic operation unit. The control unit selectively outputs a first phase pattern and a second phase pattern. The pulse forming unit forms an optical pulse train from initial pulsed light, the optical pulse train including a plurality of optical pulses having a time difference from each other and having different center wavelengths from each other. The light detection unit detects a temporal waveform of the optical pulse train. The arithmetic operation unit estimates a wavelength dispersion amount of a measurement object based on a feature amount of the temporal waveform of the optical pulse train. When the first phase pattern is output, a pulse having a long center wavelength is generated first. When the second phase pattern is output, a pulse having a short center wavelength is generated first.
