Abstract

We experimentally demonstrate multiple wavelength continuous wave (CW) sources based on longitudinal mode carving of the supercontinuum (SC) generated in optical fibers. The 10GHz SC with -20dB bandwidth of 63nm was generated with the actively modelocked fiber laser (AML-EDFL). By longitudinal mode carving of the SC we can generate more than 100 channels CW optical frequency chain.
