We report a numerical study on mid-infrared (IR) supercontinuum (SC) generation in the regime of all normal dispersion using lead bismuth gallate glass photonic crystal fiber. This fiber allows the changing of dispersion from anomalous dispersion to ultra-flat normal dispersion in the wavelength range of over 930 nm by filling its cladding holes with C2Cl4. Using a 12.5 kW laser pulse at 2.8 µm as a pump source, we demonstrate that a broad and highly coherent SC generation spectrum is generated in the wavelength range of 1.2 μm –3.4 μm with the effects of vacuum noise. However, pulse-to-pulse relative intensity noise significantly decreases the coherence. These interesting optical properties make the proposed C2Cl4—infiltrated fiber highly promising for various applications in the mid-IR regime, particularly, spectroscopy, optical coherence tomography, and metrology.
