We show how nonlinear spectral broadening in a buried chalcogenide mid-infrared waveguide can be used to reshape the spectrum of a femtosecond pulse train at 4260 nm in order to reduce the effects of atmospheric absorption due to carbon dioxide. The nonlinear spectral broadening results in the source with −20 dB spectral width spanning over 3500 nm, from 1700 nm to 5200 nm. This represents a potential route to tailored sources for long-range mid-infrared applications.
