how to do f-2f interferometry from an octave spanning supercontinnum with frequency spacing 120MHz. Which would be the most suitable optical filter in this range for filtering f and 2f components from supercontinnum, to detect carrier envelope offset frequency of a mode-locked laser.
Thanks in advance!

The optical filter has to be matched to the phase-matching bandwidth of your SHG crystal. For Ti:sapphire based combs, one typically uses some off-the-shelf PPLN crystals, e.g., for 532 nm wavelength. You can find matching interference filters from Thorlabs or Edmund Optics. You can also use a simple diffraction grating instead. Details on a suitable setup are here: https://www.nature.com/articles/nphoton.2010.91
