Introduction

Two broadband supercontinuum sources

Jibe- white light continuum generator

(T:Sapphire laser)

Cannon- based on ultrafast fiber laser source

Introduction

The generation of broadband supercontinuum spectra by injection of high-power ultrashort pulses into nonlinear optical media has been a subject of intensive research

When a high-intensity ultrashort pulse is focused into a transparent medium, a white-light continuum ranging from ultraviolet to infrared is generated

Applications

optical parametric amplification an optical metrology an optical coherence tomography materials characterization pump-probe measurements

Kerr effect

n(I)=n0 + n2I+…

n0- normal reflective index of the medium

n2- the nonlinear reflective index

Optical phase: ωL n/c

E(t) cos (ωt-kx) - electic field of a laser pulse

k= ωn/c –wavenumber

Kerr effect

E(t) cos((ω+ ξt)t - kx)

Taylor expansion around the peak of the ultrafast pulse:

ξ - depends on the nonlinear refractive index, the pulse width, peak of power and distance travelled

Generation of White light

Red wavelengths of the white light pulse travel faster than blue wavelengths
