Abstract

This paper reviews the basics of supercontinuum generation in optical fibers. After a brief introduction on pulse propagation in optical fibers, we provide an overview of the different nonlinear mechanisms that lead to the generation of broadband supercontinuum spectra with emphasis on the anomalous dispersion regime. Coherence and statistical aspects are also reviewed.
