Visualization of optical continuum evolution along a nonlinear waveguide

We describe the first non-destructive measurements of the evolution of the optical continuum along a non-linear waveguide. By utilizing near-field microscopy, the spectral variation can be imaged along and across the waveguide with sub-wavelength resolution.
