Mode locking by phase-sensitive amplification
Francesco De Lucia, Yifan Sun, Georges Semaan +4
Mode locking is the mechanism by which lasers organize many optical modes into stable trains of ultrashort pulses. It underpins optical frequency combs, precision timing and spectr…
Temporal soliton generation in an ultra-high-effective-Q Kerr resonator enabled by Raman gain
Georges Semaan, Yifan Sun, Nicolas Englebert +2
We demonstrate temporal pattern formation in a coherently driven fiber ring cavity whose effective finesse is continuously reconfigured using distributed Raman amplification. We ac…
Modulation instability and frequency-comb generation in hybrid quadratic-cubic resonators with spectral filtering
Minji Shi, Nicolas Englebert, François Leo +2
We present an analytical and numerical investigation into the phenomenon of filter-induced modulation instability in passive hybrid optical resonators exhibiting quadratic and cubi…
Two-optical-cycle pulses from nanophotonic two-color soliton compression
Robert M. Gray, Ryoto Sekine, Maximilian Shen +7
Few- and single-cycle optical pulses and their associated ultra-broadband spectra have been crucial in the progress of ultrafast science and technology. Moreover, multi-color wavef…
All-optical computing with beyond 100-GHz clock rates
Gordon H. Y. Li, Midya Parto, Jinhao Ge +9
A computer's clock rate ultimately determines the minimum time between sequential operations or instructions. Despite exponential advances in electronic computer performance owing…
Manipulation and control of temporal cavity solitons with trapping potential
Nicolas Englebert, Corentin Simon, Carlos Mas Arabí +2
Temporal cavity solitons (CSs) are stable, localized particle-like objects in the form of optical pulses that circulate indefinitely in coherently driven nonlinear resonators. In t…

We analyze the impact of pump depletion in the generation of cavity solitons in a singly-resonant parametrical oscillator that includes a nonlinear section. We find an an…
High peak-to-background-ratio solitons in a coherently-driven active fiber cavity
Nicolas Englebert, Carlos Mas Arabí, Simon-Pierre Gorza +1
We demonstrate that the peak-to-background ratio of driven solitons can be greatly improved by harnessing the cavity detuning. We use a driven fiber laser pumped below the lasing t…
