On the interferometric coherent structures in femtosecond supercontinuum generation
Mechanism of SC generation is not fully understood as at such high laser powers interplay among several competing mechanisms occurs. Self-phase modulation (SPM) [2, 5, 7, 14, 15] associated with self-focusing is considered to be the trigger for the drastic broadening of ultrashort pulses. The intensity-dependent “induced Kerr-nonlinearity” of the dielectric medium and the beam shape causes the ...
متن کاملLimits of coherent supercontinuum generation in normal dispersion fibers
We study the largely unexplored transition between coherent and noise-seeded incoherent continuum generation in all-normal dispersion (ANDi) fibers and show that highly coherent supercontinua with spectral bandwidths of one octave can be generated with long pump pulses of up to 1.5 ps duration, corresponding to soliton orders of up to N 600. In terms of N , this corresponds to an approximately ...
متن کاملOctave-spanning coherent supercontinuum generation in a silicon nitride waveguide.
We demonstrate the generation of a supercontinuum spanning more than 1.4 octaves in a silicon nitride waveguide using sub-100-fs pulses at 1 μm generated by either a 53-MHz, diode-pumped ytterbium (Yb) fiber laser or a 1-GHz, Yb:CaAlGdO(4) (Yb:CALGO) laser. Our numerical simulations show that the broadband supercontinuum is fully coherent, and a spectral interference measurement is used to veri...

متن کاملCoherent fiber supercontinuum for biophotonics.
Biophotonics and nonlinear fiber optics have traditionally been two independent fields. Since the discovery of fiber-based supercontinuum generation in 1999, biophotonics applications employing incoherent light have experienced a large impact from nonlinear fiber optics, primarily because of the access to a wide range of wavelengths and a uniform spatial profile afforded by fiber supercontinuum...
