Abstract

Supercontinuum generation spanning an octave from 900 nm to 2400 nm was obtained in all-solid glass, photonic crystal fiber, designed with flattened, all-normal dispersion and optimized for pumping in the 1500-1560 nm range. The report includes designing of microstructure of all-solid glass photonic crystal fiber and relation of dispersion profile to fiber filling factor d/Λ, numerical and experimental characteristic of fabricated fiber dispersion profile, supercontinuum generation experiment under 1530 nm pumping with 70 fs pulses, concluded with numerical analysis based on solution to nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Interplay among self-phase modulation, optical wave breaking and four-wave mixing is discussed in context of observed pump pulse broadening.
