Supercontinuum Generation in Tellurite Optical Fibers

2017

This chapter presents a state of the art of infrared supercontinuum generation in heavy oxide tellurite optical fibers from the experimental results published by the international community. As a first part, a bibliographic table gathers the literature on which this work is based. Then, the second part briefly returns on the tellurite glass compositions, the third part presents the different fiber structures (microstructured, suspended core or step-index fibers, tapered fibers), the fourth part discusses the pumping sources in relation with the fiber chromatic dispersion as well as coupling issues, the supercontinuum performances are presented in the fifth part, and the sixth part deals wit…
