A mid-infrared supercontinuum extending up to 5.4 mu m is generated in a low-loss fluoroindate fiber. It is pumped with an erbium-doped fluoride fiber amplifier seeded with 400 ps pulses at 2.75 mu m. Both fibers are fusion spliced to increase the robustness and long-term stability of the system. With more than 82% of the total power beyond 3 mu m, this approach is promising for efficient mid-IR light generation. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America
