Abstract :
It is experimentally shown that the combined effects of Raman soliton self-frequency shift with either compression of a sinusoidal beating or modulation instability leads to the generation of frequency combs with a spectral width higher than 100 nm and a central frequency shifted towards higher wavelengths.
