A Quantum Leap in Efficiency: 3 Orders of Magnitude Improvement in On-Chip Supercontinuum Generation

Researchers have achieved a groundbreaking advancement in the field of ultraefficient on-chip supercontinuum generation, paving the way for the development of portable and mechanically stable medical imaging devices, chemical sensors, and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) systems.

Supercontinuum Laser

Supercontinuum Laser

A supercontinuum laser is a type of laser that generates a broadband spectrum of light. This spectrum extends over a wide range of wavelengths, from the ultraviolet to the infrared region. The term “supercontinuum” is derived from the fact that the laser’s spectrum is continuous, unlike that of a typical laser, which is typically limited to a narrow range of wavelengths.
