Abstract :
We have been investigating ultrahigh resolution optical coherence tomography using supercontinuum. Low noise, Gaussian like supercontinua were generated at five wavelength regions. Ultrahigh resolution cross-sectional and three dimensional imaging were demonstrated for biomedical tissues and materials.
