Temporal tweezing of light: trapping and manipulation of temporal cavity solitons
Jae K. Jang, Miro Erkintalo, Stephane Coen +1
Optical tweezers use laser light to trap and move microscopic particles in space. Here we demonstrate a similar control over ultrashort light pulses, but in time. Our experiment in…
Coherent supercontinuum generation in a silicon photonic wire in the telecommunication wavelength range
Francois Leo, Simon-Pierre Gorza, Stephane Coen +2
We demonstrate a fully coherent supercontinuum spectrum spanning 500 nm from a silicon-on-insulator photonic wire waveguide pumped at 1575 nm wavelength. An excellent agreement wit…
Observation of dispersive wave emission by temporal cavity solitons
Jae K. Jang, Miro Erkintalo, Stuart G. Murdoch +1
We examine a coherently-driven, dispersion-managed, passive Kerr fiber ring resonator and report the first direct experimental observation of dispersive wave emission by temporal c…
An octave spanning mid-infrared frequency comb generated in a silicon nanophotonic wire waveguide
Bart Kuyken, Takuro Ideguchi, Simon Holzner +9
We demonstrate an octave-spanning frequency comb with a spectrum covering wavelengths from 1,540 nm up to 3,200 nm. The supercontinuum is generated by pumping a 1-cm long dispersio…
Impact of third order dispersion on nonlinear bifurcations in optical resonators
François Leo, Stéphane Coen, Pascal Kockaert +4
It is analytically shown that symmetry breaking, in dissipative systems, affects the nature of the bifurcation at onset of instability resulting in transitions from super to subcri…
Third-order chromatic dispersion stabilizes Kerr frequency combs
Pedro Parra-Rivas, Damia Gomila, Francois Leo +2
Using numerical simulations of an extended Lugiato-Lefever equation, we analyze the stability and nonlinear dynamics of Kerr frequency combs generated in microresonators and fiber…
