Abstract

Supercontinuum (SC) sources are replacement of white light sources. Supercontinuum generation in optical fiber, pumped by different sources, which include pumping with femto second (fs), picoseconds (ps) pulse sources, and continuous sources are reviewed in this chapter. The nonlinear Schrodinger equation is used to discuss the spectral broadening or SC generation. Recently, SC generation has been proved very effective and some of its applications are very promising for future ultra-high bandwidth networks.
