Supercontinuum Generation by Using a Highly Germania-Doped Fiber With a High-Power Proportion Beyond 2400 nm

A high-power all-fiber supercontinuum (SC) source in a highly germania-doped fiber (GDF) pumped by a picosecond thulium-doped master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) system is presented. By further optimizing the length of the GDF, the long-wavelength edge of the wideband flat SC can be broadened t...
