In this work, a supercontinuum (SC) source is proposed and demonstrated using a highly-doped, 2 m long zirconia-erbium doped fiber (Zr-EDF) with a dopant concentration of 3800 ppm/wt and a narrow core 100 m long single-mode-fiber (SMF). A graphene based saturable absorber (SA) is used as a passive m...
