Breathing solitons are nonlinear waves in which the energy concentrates in a localized and oscillatory fashion. Similarly to stationary solitons, breathers in dissipative systems can form stable bound states displaying molecule-like…
We report on the experimental and numerical observations of synchronisation and desynchronisation of bound states of multiple breathing solitons (breathing soliton molecules) in an ultrafast fibre laser. In the desynchronisation regime,…
We review recent advances in the study of nonlinear dynamics in mode-locked fibre lasers operating in the breathing (pulsating) soliton regime. Leveraging advanced diagnostics and control strategies -- including genetic algorithms -- we…
The observation of temporal dissipative Kerr solitons in optical microresonators provides, on the applied side, compact sources of coherent optical frequency combs that have already been applied in coherent communications, dual comb…
The emergence of breathing solitons in mode-locked lasers presents a fundamental challenge for the theoretical modelling of mode locking, with the mechanisms underlying below- and above-threshold breathing solitons, and the origins of their…
We report on the observation of various bound states of dispersion-managed (DM) solitons in a passively mode-locked Erbium-doped fiber ring laser at near zero net cavity group velocity dispersion (GVD). The generated DM solitons are…
Mode-locked lasers have been widely used to explore interactions between optical solitons, including bound-soliton states that may be regarded as "photonic molecules". Conventional mode-locked lasers can however host at most only a few…
Ultrafast transient phenomena are the most important research field in nonlinear systems, and the mode-locking fiber laser provides an excellent research platform for ultrafast transient phenomena. We report on the experimental observation…
Soliton molecules, bound states composed of interacting fundamental solitons, exhibit remarkable resemblance with chemical compounds and phenomena in quantum mechanics. Whereas optical molecules composed of two or more temporally locked…
Harnessing pulse generation from an ultrafast laser is a challenging task as reaching a specific mode-locked regime generally involves adjusting multiple control parameters, in connection with a wide range of accessible pulse dynamics.…
This article presents a systematic review of theoretical and experimental findings for bound states of two and several dissipative solitons in fiber lasers. The theoretical basis underlying the formation and stabilization of soliton…
We address the generation and interaction of dispersion-managed dissipative solitons (DMDS) in a model of fiber lasers with the cubic-quintic nonlinearity, multiphoton absorption and gain dispersion. Both anomalous and normal segments of…
The generation of temporal cavity solitons in microresonators results in low-noise optical frequency combs which are critical for applications in spectroscopy, astronomy, navigation or telecommunications. Breather solitons also form an…
We observe dark and bright intrinsic localized modes (ILMs) or discrete breathers (DB) experimentally and numerically in a diatomic-like electrical lattice. The generation of dark ILMs by driving a dissipative lattice with…
Mode-locked lasers play the role of the ideal testbeds for studying self-coherent structures, dissipative solitons, with stable spatiotemporal profiles supported by the balance between dispersion and nonlinearity. However, under some…
Soliton molecules are the manifestation of attractive and repulsive interaction between optical pulses mediated by a nonlinear medium. However, the formation and breakup of soliton molecules are difficult to observe due to the transient…
For the first time, we demonstrated alternative generation of dispersion-managed (DM) solitons or similaritons in an all-fiber Erbium-doped laser. DM solitons or similaritons can be chosen to emit at the same output port by controlling…
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…
Soliton molecules (SMs) are fundamentally important modes in nonlinear optical systems. It is a challenge to experimentally produce SMs with a required temporal separation in mode-locked fiber lasers. Here, we propose and realize an…
