DOIAbstract
We report the first experimental supercontinuum generation in a germanium waveguide. By pumping a low-loss germanium on silicon waveguide with ≈200fs pulses at 4.6 μm, we generated a supercontinuum extending from 3.53 to 5.83 μm.We acknowledge the support of the International Associated Laboratory in Photonics between France and Australia (LIA ALPhFA), the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (MIRSICOMB, ANR -17 -CE24 -0028) and the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 program (GRAPHICS 648546)
