A topical review of numerical and experimental studies of supercontinuum generation in
photonic crystal fiber is presented over the full range of experimentally reported parameters …

We made an all-silica optical fiber by embedding a central core in a two-dimensional
photonic crystal with a micrometer-spaced hexagonal array of air holes. An effective-index …

Photonic crystal fibres have wavelength-scale morphological microstructure running down
their length. This structure enables light to be controlled within the fibre in ways not …

The formation of temporal dissipative Kerr solitons in microresonators driven by a
continuous-wave laser enables the generation of coherent, broadband, and spectrally …
