摘要
Supercontinuum radiation in photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) has recently found exciting applications in metrology, fundamental research, and medical sciences. Intensive efforts have been put into optimizing supercontinuum radiation parameters such as spectral width, flatness, and brightness. This work presents results of supercontinuum generation in suspended core microstructured optical fibers. These results arc compared with supercontinuum generation in photonic crystal fibers with hexagonal lattice.
