Ultrabroadband supercontinuum generation from ultraviolet to 6.28 μ m in a fluoride fiber
Ultrabroadband supercontinuum light expanding from ultraviolet to 6.28 μ m is generated in a centimeter-long fluoride fiber pumped by a 1450 nm femtosecond laser. The spectral broadening in the fluoride fiber is caused by self-phase modulation, Raman scattering and four-wave mixing. The experiment...

is generated in a centimeter-long fluoride fiber pumped by a 1450 nm femtosecond laser. The spectral broadening in the fluoride fiber is caused by self-phase modulation, Raman scattering and four-wave mixing. The experimental and simulated results show that fluoride fiber is a promising candidate for generating the midinfrared supercontinuum light up to
