摘要
Supercontinuum generation and the development of light sources based on these effects are discussed. We especially emphasize on the use of such sources for optical coherence tomography imaging after a brief overview of OCT systems. Finally we demonstrate the use of a commercial supercontinuum in the frame of 'scan-free' time domain correlation and optically processed depth dependant dispersion Compensation.
