High-power supercontinuum generation in the mid-infrared pumped by a soliton self-frequency shifted source
We report the demonstration of a fiber-based supercontinuum source delivering up to 825 mW of average output power between 2.5 and 5.0 µm generated in all-normal dispersion regime. The pumping source consists of an amplified ultrafast Er ZrF fiber laser providing high peak power femtosecond pulses a...
