Supercontinuum generation in an integrated high-index glass spiral waveguide

A supercontinuum spectrum of more than 300 nm is obtained at 1550 nm and 1290 nm using doped-silica glass, 45 cm long, integrated spiral waveguides. Different dynamics near two distinct zero dispersion wavelengths are observed and explained theoretically.
