Experiments and numerical simulation were performed for verification of the role of
femtosecond pulse chirp for supercontinuum generation in photonic crystal fiber. We …

We demonstrate all-normal dispersion supercontinuum generation in chalcogenide photonic
crystal fibers pumped at 2070-2080 nm with a femtosecond fiber laser. At 2.9 kW peak …

We present a new approach to the design of optical microstructured fibers that have group
velocity dispersion (GVD) and effective nonlinear coefficient (γ) tailored for supercontinuum …

With its applications in science and engineering, supercontinuum (SC) generation is a
phenomenon widely studied in nonlinear fiber optics. The SC spectral properties are not …

This review begins with an historical introduction to the field of nonlinear fiber optics and
then focuses on the propagation of short optical pulses inside optical fibers. The underlying …

In photonic crystal fibers with closely spaced zero dispersion wavelengths it is possible to
have two pairs of four-wave mixing (FWM) gain peaks. Here, we demonstrate both …

Fiber supercontinua represent light sources of pivotal importance for a wide range of
applications, ranging from optical communications to frequency metrology. Although spectra …

We study the supercontinuum process in optical fibers numerically for a variety of dispersion
profiles to investigate how a specific dispersion profile controls the emission of dispersive …

We demonstrate continuous wave supercontinuum generation extending to the visible
spectral region by pumping photonic crystal fibers at 1.07 μm with a 400 W single mode …

We generate, measure, and model broadband continuum generation from a relatively short
8-mm-long microstructure fiber pumped by 40-fs pulses at 816 nm in the near infrared. Cross …
