Abstract: | A seven-core photonic crystal fiber(PCF) is fabricated and shown to possess a Gaussian-like far-field-intensity distribution.The seven-core PCF,designed with double-cladding structure and zero dispersion wavelength at 927 nm,is utilized to build up a 104 W all-fiber-integrated supercontinuum(SC) source with total conversion efficiency up to 74.3%.The average output power of SC can be further scaled based on this multi-core PCF. |
