Stimulated Raman Scattering Imposes Fundamental Limits to the Duration and Bandwidth of Temporal Cavity Solitons
Yadong Wang, Miles Anderson, Stéphane Coen +2
Temporal cavity solitons (CS) are optical pulses that can persist in passive resonators, and they play a key role in the generation of coherent microresonator frequency combs. In r…
Super cavity solitons and the coexistence of multiple nonlinear states in a tristable passive Kerr resonator
Miles Anderson, Yadong Wang, Francois Leo +3
Passive Kerr cavities driven by coherent laser fields display a rich landscape of nonlinear physics, including bistability, pattern formation, and localised dissipative structures…
Observations of spatiotemporal instabilities in the strong-driving regime of an AC-driven nonlinear Schrödinger system
Miles Anderson, François Leo, Stéphane Coen +2
Localized dissipative structures (LDS) have been predicted to display a rich array of instabilities, yet systematic experimental studies have remained scarce. We have used a synchr…
Observation of Spatiotemporal Chaos Induced by a Cavity Soliton in a Fiber Ring Resonator
Miles Anderson, Francois Leo, Stephane Coen +2
We report on the experimental observation of temporal cavity soliton destabilization via spatiotemporal chaos in a coherently-driven optical fiber ring resonator. Numerical simulat…
