Effects of self- and cross-phase modulation on the spontaneous symmetry breaking of light in ring resonators
Lewis Hill, Gian-Luca Oppo, Michael T. M. Woodley +1
We describe spontaneous symmetry breaking in the powers of two optical modes coupled into a ring resonator, using a pair of coupled Lorentzian equations, featuring tunable self- an…
Asymmetric balance in symmetry breaking
Bruno Garbin, Julien Fatome, Gian-Luca Oppo +3
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is central to our understanding of physics and explains many natural phenomena, from cosmic scales to subatomic particles. Its use for applications re…
Laser Cavity-Soliton Micro-Combs
Hualong Bao, Andrew Cooper, Maxwell Rowley +10
The field of micro-cavity based frequency combs, or 'micro-combs'[1,2], has recently witnessed many fundamental breakthroughs[3-19] enabled by the discovery of temporal cavity-soli…
Extreme events in forced oscillatory media in 0, 1 and 2 dimensions
S. Barland, M. Brambilla, L. Columbo +14
One of the open questions in the field of optical rogue waves is the relevance of the number of spatial dimensions in which waves propagate. Here we review recent results on extrem…
