Spectrally controlled supercontinuum generation

We present new developments in the generation of photonic crystal fiber-based white-light SC of unprecedented breadth (> 2500 nm) and smoothness. The spectral coverage (350 nm - 3000 nm) and quality of this radiation is promising for a variety of applications.
