We have experimentally studied supercontinuum generation in a photonic crystal fiber as a function of pump wavelength and intensity with 100 fs pulsewidth. A supercontinuum over 750 nm spectral width with amplitude variation less than 10 dB has been achieved. It was generated by coupling femtosecond pulses from a mode-locked Ti:Sapphire laser into a 2 m long photonic crystal fiber. Adjusting the parameters of the pump source, it was also possible to control different spectral features of the supercontinuum radiation.
