Flatly broadened, wideband and low noise supercontinuum generation in highly nonlinear hybrid fiber
TLDR
Wideband of 1180-2100 nm, flatly broadened supercontinuum (SC) generation using highly nonlinear hybrid fibers and femtosecond fiber laser is presented.Abstract:
We present wideband of 1180-2100 nm, flatly broadened supercontinuum (SC) generation using highly nonlinear hybrid fibers and femtosecond fiber laser. Stable and smooth spectra without fine structure are demonstrated. The hybrid fibers are constructed by fusion splicing fibers with different properties. The SC spectra can be properly controlled by the optimal design of the hybrid fiber based on the numerical analysis. The generated SC pulse shows the low relative intensity noise (RIN).read more

Visible continuum generation in air–silica microstructure optical fibers with anomalous dispersion at 800 nm
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate experimentally that air-silica microstructure optical fibers can exhibit anomalous dispersion at visible wavelengths, and exploit this feature to generate an optical continuum 550 THz in width, extending from the violet to the infrared.

TL;DR: The simulations allow several important physical processes responsible for supercontinuum generation to be identified and illustrate how the XFROG trace provides an intuitive means of interpreting correlated temporal and spectral features of thesupercontinuum.
