Abstract
Microstructured optical fibers (MOFs) allow efficient generation of broadband supercontinuum spectra from narrow-band light sources. The spectral properties of supercontinua are thereby closely dependent on the tunable dispersion and nonlinear characteristics of the MOFs and can thus be tailored according to the requirements. Very high air filling factors of the cladding and extreme light confinement are reached by suspended-core MOFs, typically studied for sensing applications in the past [1-3].
