Group interactions of dissipative solitons in a laser cavity: the case of 2+1.
نویسندگان
چکیده
What can be the outcome of the interaction between a dissipative soliton pair and a soliton singlet? We report an experimental observation of ???elastic??? collisions as well as ???inelastic??? formation of triplet soliton states in a fiber laser setup. These observations are supported with the numerical simulations based on the dispersion (parameter) managed cubic-quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation model.

Frequency and phase locking of laser cavity solitons
Self-localized states or dissipative solitons have the freedom of translation in systems with a homogeneous background. When compared to cavity solitons in coherently driven nonlinear optical systems, laser cavity solitons have the additional freedom of the optical phase. We explore the consequences of this additional Goldstone mode and analyze experimentally and numerically frequency and phase...
متن کاملInfiltrated bunch of solitons in Bi-doped frequency-shifted feedback fibre laser operated at 1450 nm
Mode-locked fibre laser as a dissipative system is characterized by rich forms of soliton interaction, which take place via internal energy exchange through noisy background in the presence of dispersion and nonlinearity. The result of soliton interaction was either stationary-localized or chaotically-oscillated soliton complexes, which have been shown before as stand-alone in the cavity. Here ...
متن کاملGeneration and scaling of highly-chirped dissipative solitons in an Yb-doped fiber laser
Generation of highly-chirped dissipative solitons (HCDS) in normal-dispersion cavity is treated now as a prospective technique to increase energy of femtosecond pulses delivered by an oscillator. Based on recently developed analytical model describing stable HCDS solutions, we have realized experimentally the regime of highly-chirped pulses in an Ybdoped fiber laser with passive mode locking vi...
متن کاملDissipative Solitons in Pattern-forming Nonlinear Optical Systems: Cavity Solitons and Feedback Solitons
Many dissipative optical systems support patterns. Dissipative solitons are generally found where a pattern coexists with a stable unpatterned state. We consider such phenomena in driven optical cavities containing a nonlinear medium (cavity solitons) and rather similar phenomena (feedback solitons) where a driven nonlinear optical medium is in front of a single feedback mirror. The history, th...
متن کاملCompensation of spatial inhomogeneities in a cavity soliton laser using a spatial light modulator.
Dissipative solitons are self-localized states which can exist anywhere in a system with translational symmetry, but in real systems this translational symmetry is usually broken due to parasitic inhomogeneities leading to spatial disorder, pinning the soliton positions. We discuss the effects of semiconductor growth induced spatial disorder on the operation of a cavity soliton laser based on a...
