Parallel Reactors Unveil the Secrets of Soliton Molecules

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
ERLANGEN, Germany, June 29, 2021 — A team of scientists at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light has developed a platform called a parallel optical-soliton reactor, which can host massively dynamic events of soliton molecules. The parallel reactors resemble chemical reactors, the researchers said, and can isolate and host multiple solitons and then manipulate their interactions through various all-optical methods. Schematic of the parallel optical-soliton reactors based on a mode-locked ring-fiber laser cavity (a). The temporal optomechanical (OM) lattice enabled by PCF provides trapping potentials to host...Read full article

    soliton
    Any isolated wave that propagates without dispersion of energy. Specifically to photonics, an ultrashort pulse of laser light that propagates through a waveguide without characteristic chromatic dispersion.
