Micro-combs [1 - 4], optical frequency combs generated by integrated micro-cavity resonators, offer the full potential of their bulk counterparts [5,6], but in an integrated footprint. The discovery of temporal soliton states (DKS…
A single-mode all-silica photonic crystal fiber with an effective area of 600 square-micron and low bending loss is demonstrated. The fiber is characterized in terms of attenuation, chromatic dispersion and modal properties.
Temporal optical solitons have been the subject of intense research due to their intriguing physics and applications in ultrafast optics and supercontinuum generation. Conventional bright optical solitons result from the interaction of…
Solitons, as stable localized wave packets that can propagate long distance in dispersive media without changing their shapes, are ubiquitous in nonlinear physical systems. Since the first experimental realization of optical bright solitons…
This study presents a numerical investigation of solid-core photonic crystal fibers with circular and hexagonal cladding geometries. The goal is to optimize optical parameters for nonlinear photonics and environmental sensing.…
Solitons are localized nonlinear wave packets that propagate without spreading because nonlinearity balances dispersion. Their robustness is well understood in effectively one-dimensional systems, but introducing additional spatial…
We analyze the dynamics of dissipative solitons in silicon on insulator waveguides embedded in a gain medium. The optical propagation is modeled through a cubic Ginzburg-Landau equation for the field envelope coupled with an ordinary…
Crystal quartz is a well-known anisotropic medium with optically active phonons in the THz region where hyperbolic phonon-polaritons can be excited. Here, we use this material to illustrate how the behavior of bulk and surface hyperbolic…
We study large-amplitude one-dimensional solitary waves in photonic crystals featuring competition between linear and nonlinear lattices, with minima of the linear potential coinciding with maxima of the nonlinear pseudopotential, and vice…
We study optical coefficients that characterize wave propagation through layered structures called plasmonic crystals. These consist of a finite number of stacked metallic sheets embedded in dielectric hosts with a subwavelength spacing. By…
Adiabatic soliton spectral compression in a dispersion-increasing fiber is demonstrated both numerically and experimentally. We show a positively-chirped pulse provides better spectral compression in a dispersion-increasing fiber with large…
The motion of three-dimensional (3D) solitary waves and solitons in nonlinear crystal-like structures, such as photonic materials, is studied. It is demonstrated that collective excitations in these systems can be tailored to move in…
Optical soliton dynamics can cause the extreme alteration of the temporal and spectral shape of a propagating light pulse. They occur at up to kilowatt peak powers in glass-core optical fibres and the gigawatt level in gas-filled…
Solitary waves have consistently captured the imagination of scientists, ranging from fundamental breakthroughs in spectroscopy and metrology enabled by supercontinuum light, to gap solitons for dispersionless slow-light, and discrete…
A theory of an optical vector pulsing soliton of self-induced transparency in an ensemble of semiconductor quantum dots is investigated. It is shown that a distribution of the excitonic ground-state transition dipole moments of the quantum…
The transition from the near to the far field of the fundamental mode radiating out of a photonic crystal fiber is investigated experimentally and theoretically. It is observed that the hexagonal shape of the near field rotates two times by…
A line photon incident in an electron-scattering medium is transferred in a diffusive way both in real space and in frequency space, and the mean number of scatterings changes as the wavelength shifts from the line center. This leads to the…
We report what we believe is the weakest interaction between solitons ever observed. Our experiment involves temporal optical cavity solitons recirculating in a coherently-driven passive optical fibre ring resonator. We observe two…
We analyze optical soliton propagation in the presence of weak absorption lines with much narrower linewidths as compared to the soliton spectrum width using the novel perturbation analysis technique based on an integral representation in…
At the exit surface of a photonic crystal, the intensity of the diffracted wave can be periodically modulated, showing a maximum in the "positive" (forward diffracted) or in the "negative" (diffracted) direction, depending on the slab…
