This paper describes a prospect for broadband mid-infrared (mid-IR) highly coherent supercontinuum generation. Tellurite and chalcogenide glass with high transparency up to the mid-IR range are used as fiber materials. We successfully develop all-solid hybrid microstructured optical fibers made of tellurite and chalcogenide glass to control chromatic dispersion and demonstrate that highly nonlinear soft glass microstructured optical fibers are promising media for broadband mid-IR highly coherent supercontinuum generation.
