Towards full mid-infrared supercontinuum generation with tapered chalcogenide-glass rods

We experimentally demonstrate that simple tapered Ge-Se-Te glass rods with femtosecond pumping enables efficient multi-octave mid-infrared supercontinuum generation, from 1.7 to 16 µm, while keeping an excellent spatial beam profile.
