Abstract
The generation of a broad CW supercontinuum source spanning from 1286 to 1538 nm is described. The device makes use of a tunable Yb-doped fiber laser, several silica fibers of adequate dispersion and a cascade of FBG mirrors that seed supercontinuum emission at 1318 nm. The source has an output power of 3 W and exhibits >0 dBm/nm spectral density over a range of more than 240 nm.
