Supercontinuum generation in silicon waveguides based on optical wave-breaking
Conference poster, 2014
We theoretically find the third order dispersion that optimizes the spectral broadening induced by optical wave-breaking. It produces supercontinuum spectra spanning beyond 2=3 of an octave in a silicon waveguide pumping at 1550 nm.
