Multimode Nonlinear Dynamics in Anomalous Dispersion Spatiotemporal Mode-locked Lasers

Optics 2022-10-12 v1

Abstract

Spatiotemporal mode-locking in a laser with anomalous dispersion is investigated. Mode-locked states with varying modal content can be observed, but we find it difficult to observe highly multimode states. We describe the properties of these mode-locked states and compare them to the results of numerical simulations. Prospects for the generation of highly-multimode states and lasers based on multimode soliton formation are discussed.
