Abstract

See full text

Coherent and compact supercontinuum light sources for the mid IR spectral regime and exemplary applications are disclosed based on the use highly nonlinear fibers or waveguides. In at least one embodiment the coherence of the supercontinuum sources is increased using nonlinear material with an elevated vibrational contribution to the nonlinear response function. Compact supercontinuum light sources can be constructed with the use of passively mode locked fiber or diode lasers. Wavelength tunable sources can be constructed using appropriate optical filters or frequency conversion sections.
