Supercontinuum generation by intermodal four-wave mixing in a step-index few-mode fibre
We demonstrate broadband supercontinuum generation from 560 nm up to 2350 nm by coupling a simple Q-switched picosecond laser at 1064 nm into a normally dispersive step-index few-mode optical fiber designed to support five modes. It is further shown that multiple cascaded intermodal four-wave mixing...
