description

Numerical design of all normal dispersion fiber for SWIR supercontinuum generation based on standard air-silica microstructure is presented. We increase the spectral width of generated supercontinuum up to 2 octaves while maintaining perfect spectral flatness by tailoring the dispersion profile.
