In experimental analyses, a 237 nm broadband infrared continuum was generated pumped at 1 550 nm(normal dispersion regime) by 1.6 ps pulses from an erbium-doped fiber laser. In addition, we conduct the numerical analyses of SC based on generalized nonlinear Schr dionger equation. The results have been applied to investigate the dominant physical processes underlie the generation of SC. We conclude that dispersion, self-phase modulation(SPM),four-wave-mixing(FWM) and Raman scattering are determinants of SC generation rather than fission of soliton in normal-dispersion PCF.展开更多
