Abstract

A method of and system for correcting mode hop wavelength error in data obtained measuring optical characteristics over a number of wavelengths, includes at a location where mode hop wavelength error occurs in an assemblage of data, representing optical characteristics with respect to wavelength of incident electromagnetic energy of a device under test, compensating or correcting the data to overcome errors due to mode hop occurring in the measurement process.
