ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 19 -- United States Patent no. 12,332,476, issued on June 17, was assigned to NKT Photonics A/S (Birkerod, Denmark).

"Long wavelength generation in optical fiber" was invented by Peter Morten Moselund (Copenhagen N, Denmark).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A supercontinuum source including a pump light source arranged to emit pump light and a nonlinear fiber having a core arranged to receive the pump light. The supercontinuum includes infrared wavelengths generated in the nonlinear fiber from the pump light. The nonlinear fiber has a dispersion profile including a zero dispersion wavelength, a positive peak value at a peak wavelength longer than the zero dispersion wavelen...
