We propose and demonstrate the generation of a supercontinuum with a few-mode fiber. Due to the accommodation of a few-mode fiber in LP01 and LP11 modes, the system was engineered to detect the octave spanning supercontinuum in both modes. A mode-locked laser with 5.2 nm spectral bandwidth at a cent...
