Abstract

We experimentally demonstrate the generation of supercontinuum (SC) with a 12.5GHz DFB/EAM ultrashort optical pulse broadened in the high nonlinear fiber (HNLF). Through longitudinal mode-carving of the SC spectrum, a novel multiwavelength continuous wave (CW) optical source with precise 25GHz channel spacing is realized. The bit error rate (BER) curve and eye diagram show that the multiwavelength CW optical source is promising for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems.
