Abstract

We have experimentally demonstrated midinfrared (MIR) supercontinuum (SC) generation in a low-loss Te-based chalcogenide (ChG) step-index fiber. The fiber, fabricated by an isolated extrusion method, has an optical loss of 2–3 dB/m at 6.2–10.3 μm and 3.2 dB/m at 10.6 μm, the lowest value reported for any Te-based ChG step-index fiber. A MIR SC spectrum (∼1.5 to 14 μm) is generated from the 23-cm fiber pumped by a 4.5 μm laser (∼150 fs, 1 kHz). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first SC experimental demonstration in Te-based ChG fiber and the broadest MIR SC generation pumped in the normal dispersion regime in the optical fibers.
