Fig. 2. Juxtaposed integrated spectra at = 猃? for the four spatial conditions: on axis, off-axis, two-beam and ring input pules. In conclusion, by exploring the effects of supercontinuum generation in a highly multimoded silica glass fiber, we found that variations in the initial spatial conditions can lead to appreciable differences in both the spatial and spectral domain-that could be useful in implementing tunable optical sources.
