Solitons are stable localized wave packets that can propagate long distance in dispersive
media without changing their shapes. As particle-like nonlinear localized waves, solitons …

Real‐time investigation in mode‐locked fiber lasers (MLFLs) is important to understand the
ultrafast dynamics before, during, and after the formation of stable laser pulses. However …

The complex cubic-quintic Ginzburg–Landau equation (CQGLE) is a universal model for
describing a dissipative system, especially fiber laser. The analytic one-soliton solution of …

Despite remarkable developments in the field, a detailed treatment of non-Kerr law media
has not been published. Introduction to non-Kerr Law Optical Solitons is the first book …

A passively mode-locked fiber laser is theoretically investigated. The mode locking is
achieved using the nonlinear polarization technique. We consider the practical case of the …

This book addresses a subject at the crossing point of two lines of investi gation-synergetics
and modern nonlinear optics. First, the book is devoted to optical patterns that previously …

The emergence of confined structures and pattern formation are exceptional manifestations
of nonlinear interactions found in a variety of physical, chemical and biological systems …

We study experimentally and theoretically the interactions among ultrashort optical pulses in
the soliton rain multiple-pulse dynamics of a fiber laser. The laser is mode locked by a …

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 …

Soliton molecules (SMs) are fundamentally important modes in nonlinear optical systems. It
is a challenge to experimentally produce SMs with the required temporal separation (TS) in …
