Mid-Infrared Supercontinuum Generation in Germanium-on-Silicon Waveguides

We report the first experimental supercontinuum generation (from 3.53 to 5.83 μm) in a pure germanium waveguide. By optimizing the design, we envision to generate a supercontinuum extending up to almost 10 μm. 02020 The Author(s).
