description The invention relates to a microstructured optical fiber (20) for generating broadband white light, the fiber (20) comprising a fiber core (21) doped with germanium and silica cladding (22) surrounding the fiber core (21), the cladding (22) including a plurality of holes arranged in the form of a regular mesh, the fiber being characterized in that the diameter ¦ of a hole in the cladding (22), the pitch › between the respective centers of two neighboring holes in the cladding (22), and the refractive index difference ”n between the germanium-doped fiber core (21) and the silica of the cladding (22) are such that 0.6 ‰¤ ¦ / › ‰¤ 1 3 ¼m ‰¤ › ‰¤ 6.5 ¼m , and ”n = ” ¢ n max * f r with ”n max , i.e. the maximum refractive index difference between the germanium-doped fiber core and the silica of the cladding, being such that 10 × 10 - 3 ‰¤ ”n max ‰¤ 40 × 10 - 3 and f(r) being a function for the distribution of germanium-doping within the fiber core depending on the radius r of said core, such that the fiber (20) can generate white light on the fundamental mode over a wavelength band having a width of at least 1000 nm.
