MINERVA researchers from DTU working with colleagues from Australian National University (ANU) recently published a key paper in Optics Express. By pumping a suspended core chalcogenide fibre at 4.4 μm a supercontinuum was generated spanning from 1.7 to 7.5 μm with an average power >5.0 μm of 4.7 mW.
