Biophotonics and nonlinear fiber optics have traditionally been two independent fields.
Since the discovery of fiber‐based supercontinuum generation in 1999, biophotonics …

Fiber lasers, which consist of ideal waveguides of optical fibers, work as stable, practical,
and maintenance-free lasers. A passively mode-locked ultrashort pulse fiber laser using the …

Over the past four years, there has been a surge of activity in the supercontinuum field since
the introduction of various types of microstructure fibers. The main reason for this great …

Optical fibres have for almost three decades been fabricated of solid glass. It was, therefore,
a radical change that took place, when researchers in the late 90's started to fabricate hair …

Supercontinuum generation is investigated experimentally and numerically in a highly
nonlinear index-guiding photonic crystal optical fiber in a regime in which self-phase …

We review supercontinuum generation in optical fibers for particular cases where the
nonlinear spectral broadening is induced by pump radiation from fiber-format sources …

Supercontinuum (SC) generation in all-normal dispersion photonic crystal fiber under high
energy femtosecond pumping is numerically investigated. It is shown that coherent octave …

We present an all-fiber supercontinuum source based on a passively mode-locked erbium
fiber laser and a small-effective-area, germanium-doped silica fiber. The parallels between …

Recent progress toward multiterabit/s optical transmission systems employing all-optical
ultrafast signal-processing technologies is described. Focus is placed on optical time …

In this paper, ultradense wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) transmission technologies
are discussed, and a field demonstration of over-1000-channel ultradense WDM …
