Abstract

The propagation of ultrashort laser pulses into a microstructured fiber having a large nonlinear coefficient is found to give rise to various nonlinear phenomena. By using an input wavelength in the range 1300–1550 nm, the observed output spectrum presents, besides supercontinuum generation, sharp lines due to third-harmonic generation and four-wave mixing. When the input wavelength is around 800 nm, close to the zero-dispersion wavelength, the solitonic propagation is accompanied by a very intense and narrow-band emission in the blue spectral region.
