We present gain measurements of III-V semiconductor samples, both highly temporarily and spectrally resolved. The pump-probe Ti:Sapphire amplifier-driven setup features high excitation densities, a temporal resolution of below 200fs and a white-light supercontinuum probe. The latter, in combination with a spectrometer with a (GaIn)As photo-diode array, allows for the spectral resolution within one experimental run. The experimental spectra are compared with calculations based on a microscopic theory, which requires no free fit parameters. The good agreement underlines the predictive capability of the theory. Gain up to gL = 0.002 for (GaIn)As and gL = 0.003 for (GaIn)(NAs) per quantum well is observed, as well as numerous effects related to carrier dynamics such as feeding and hot carrier relaxation.
