Low Loss, High Na Chalcogenide Glass Fibers For Broadband Mid-Infrared Supercontinuum Generation

Abstract

High-purity Ge-As-Se and Ge-As-S chalcogenide glasses were prepared by modified physical and chemical purification techniques. Using the purified glasses, step-index fibers with a small core (∼5.5 μm) and large numerical aperture (∼1.3) were fabricated. When a 13.5-cm-long fiber was pumped with 320 fs pulses at a repetition rate of 10.5 MHz at 4.1 μm, supercontinuum spanning from ∼1.8 to ∼9.8 μm with a dynamic range of ±10 dB and an average power of ∼3 mW was generated.
