Localized structures in dispersive and doubly resonant optical parametric oscillators

P. Parra-Rivas, L. Gelens, F. Leo

We study temporally localized structures in doubly resonant degenerate optical parametric oscillators in the absence of temporal walk-off. We focus on states formed through the loc…

Origin, bifurcation structure and stability of localized states in Kerr dispersive optical cavities

P. Parra-Rivas, E. Knobloch, L. Gelens +1

Localized coherent structures can form in externally-driven dispersive optical cavities with a Kerr-type nonlinearity. Such systems are described by the Lugiato-Lefever equation, w…

Observation of the Eckhaus Instability in Whispering-Gallery Mode Resonators

Damià Gomila, Pedro Parra-Rivas, Pere Colet +6

The Eckhaus instability is a secondary instability of nonlinear spatiotemporal patterns in which high-wavenumber periodic solutions become unstable against small-wavenumber perturb…

Bifurcation structure of periodic patterns in the Lugiato-Lefever equation with anomalous dispersion

P. Parra-Rivas, D. Gomila, L. Gelens +1

We study the stability and bifurcation structure of spatially extended patterns arising in nonlin- ear optical resonators with a Kerr-type nonlinearity and anomalous group velocity…

Interaction of solitons and the formation of bound states in the generalized Lugiato-Lefever equation

P. Parra-Rivas, D. Gomila, P. Colet +1

Bound states, also called soliton molecules, can form as a result of the interaction between individual solitons. This interaction is mediated through the tails of each soliton tha…

Front interaction induces excitable behavior

P. Parra-Rivas, M. A. Matias, P. Colet +3

Spatially extended systems can support local transient excitations in which just a part of the system is excited. The mechanisms reported so far are local excitability and excitati…
