Abstract
Pre-chirp of the input pulse has a significant effect on pulse evolution in a photonic crystal fiber. We present numerical simulations which show that the supercontinuum bandwidth increases with the linear chirp, and that the coherence of supercontinuum improves as frequency chirping increases. An optimal positive chirp is identified that maximizes the supercontinuum bandwidth, corresponding to the formation of only one red-shifting Raman soliton.
