Abstract :
We report the first chalcogenide microwire that is designed with all-normal dispersion to generate supercontinuum by optical-wave-breaking, a low-noise nonlinear process. The generated supercontinuum spectrum spans over an octave from 960 nm to 2500 nm using a microwire length of only 3 mm.
