Abstract: A light source having a relative noise level in the order of 10^-6 and sufficient stability for application in STED lithography has been obtained using the generation of Cherenkov peaks in a supercontinuum spectrum.

Keywords: supercontinuum, STED lithography, photonic crystal fibres, Cherenkov peaks in a supercontinuum.
