This study proposes a photonic crystal fiber made of fused silica glass, with the core infiltrated with chloroform as a new source of supercontinuum (SC) spectrum. We studied numerically the guiding properties of the fiber structure in terms of characteristic dispersion and mode area of the fundamental mode. Based on the results, the structural geometries of the CHCl3-core photonic crystal fiber was optimized in order to support the broadband SC generations. The fiber structure with lattice constant 1.0 μm, filling factor 0.8 and the diameter of the first-ring air holes equals 0.5 μm operates in all-normal dispersion. The SC with a broadened spectral bandwidth of 0.8 to 2.0 μm is formed by using a pump pulse having a wavelength of 850 nm, 120 fs duration and power of w. That fiber would be good candidates for all-fiber SC sources as cost-effective alternatives to glass core fibers
