- This paper discusses one of the widest multi-octave spreading supercontinuum generation (SG) reports, over the 1.8-11 m wavelength band, from a single 1 cm long photonic device. Its importance is seen as SG is an emerging area of nonlinear photonics, well suited to generate coherent light in the near, mid and far-infrared band, with many applications developing in spectroscopic imaging and optical sensing. The work underpins potential applications in reporting the first use of rigorous numerical approaches for dispersion tailoring of highly nonlinear chalcogenide planar waveguide with MgF lower cladding providing stronger mode confinement
