摘要
We report the generation of a mid-infrared supercontinuum created by approximate to 7.5 ps duration pulses at 3260 nm passing through a dispersion engineered As2S3 rib waveguide. The threshold for a 6.6 cm long waveguide was around 800 W and at 1700 W the spectrum extended from approximate to 2.9-4.2 mu m and was limited on the long wavelength side by absorption in the cladding of this particular waveguide.
