Abstract
The z-scan technique is a well established method to characterize optical nonlinearities of bulk materials.1 Nevertheless this method is not useful for measurements of nonlinearities in optical waveguides. In this work we propose a novel technique analogous to the z-scan using the equivalence between space and time in the propagation equations.2
