“…For example, by pumping at 4·7 μm in a 18-cm long As-Se suspended core fiber, with a peak power of 5·2 kW, a supercontinuum has been observed from 1·7 to 8 μm with an average output power of 15·6 mw [49].…”

The combination of the unique optical properties of chalcogenide glasses, in terms of infrared transmission and optical non-linearity, with the original guiding properties of microstructured optical fibers leads to a new category of fibers with promising applications in mid-infrared optics. The recent developments on chalcogenide microstructured optical fibers are exposed and discussed with regards to mid-IR guiding, infrared light transport and delivery, generation of new infrared sources, and infrared spectroscopy.

“…Solid core PCFs finds its applications in nonlinear fiber optics, fiber lasers, supercontinuum generation devices etc. (Moller et al 2015;Dudley et al 2006;Kibler et al 2009;Petersen et al 2014). On the other hand air-core PCF opens new perspectives in application of fibers for high energy transfer, particle guidance, and fiber sensors (Jin et al 2013;Frazao et al 2008;Wang et al 2013).…”

Temperature change of the water infiltrated PCF is an interesting and practical method for a dynamical fine tuning of dispersion in active dispersion shift compensating systems. In this paper we present a numerical study on the influence of the temperature of infiltrated water on the dispersion and modal characteristics of photonic crystal fiber. We study regular hexagonal lattice photonic crystal fibers with various geometrical parameters using finite element method.

“…Particularly, high-power supercontinuum generation in the mid-infrared based on soft glasses 1,3,4 with higher nonlinearities and wider transparency windows such as chalcogenide [6][7][8][9] and fluoride fibers 10 have been reported. A further interesting material is tellurite glass with a one order of magnitude higher nonlinear refractive index compared to fused silica and an excellent optical transparency up to 5 µm.…”

Solitonic supercontinuum of femtosecond mid-IR pulses in W-type index tellurite fibers with two zero dispersion wavelengths

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

We present a detailed experimental parameter study on mid-IR supercontinuum generation in W-type index tellurite fibers, which reveals how the core diameter, pump wavelength, fiber length, and pump power dramatically influence the spectral broadening. As pump source, we use femtosecond mid-IR pulses from a post-amplified optical parametric oscillator tunable between 1.7 μm and 4.1 μm at 43 MHz repetition rate. We are able to generate red-shifted dispersive waves up to a wavelength of 5.1 μm by pumping a tellurite fiber in the anomalous dispersion regime between its two zero dispersion wavelengths. Distinctive soliton dynamics can be identified as the main broadening mechanism resulting in a maximum spectral width of over 2000 nm with output powers of up to 160 mW. We experimentally demonstrated that efficient spectral broadening with considerably improved power proportion in the important first atmospheric transmission window between 3 and 5 μm can be achieved in robust W-type tellurite fibers pumped at long wavelengths by ultra-fast lasers.
