Mid-infrared Supercontinuum Generation to ∼4.7 μm in a ZBLAN Fiber Pumped by an Optical Parametric Generator

We present mid-infrared (mid-IR) supercontinuum (SC) generation from a step-index fluorozirconate fiber pumped at 2.25 μm. When 70 ps pulses with a peak power of 128 kW were launched into a ZBLAN fiber with a zero dispersion wavelength at 1.603 μm, SC was extended to 4695 nm, w...
