The discovery of stable and broad frequency combs in monochromatically pumped high-Q optical Kerr microresonators caused by the generation temporal solitons can be regarded as one major breakthroughs nonlinear optics during last two decades. transfer soliton–comb concept to χ(2) promises lowering pump power, new operation regimes, entering spectral ranges; scientifically, it is a big challenge....
