研究目的
Investigating the formation and collision of multistability-enabled composite dissipative Kerr solitons in optical microresonators.
研究成果
The study demonstrates the rich physics of Kerr multistability, enabling the observation of novel dynamics such as composite solitons and soliton collisions. It highlights the potential applications in microcomb-based spectroscopy and metrology, and suggests future studies could explore more complex soliton dynamics with multiple lasers.
研究不足
The study is limited by the technical constraints of controlling the relative locations of solitons due to their same group velocity when pumped by the same lasers, the high repetition rate of microresonator DKSs limiting imaging techniques, and the interaction of DKSs via long-range dispersive-wave-mediated effects.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs a crystalline microresonator pumped by two lasers with frequency detuning to explore multistability and soliton dynamics. Theoretical models include the Lugiato-Lefever equation (LLE) for simulating soliton behavior.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A magnesium fluoride (MgF2) microresonator with a free spectral range (FSR) of 14.09 GHz is used. Data is collected through optical spectrum analysis and ultrafast imaging techniques.
3:09 GHz is used. Data is collected through optical spectrum analysis and ultrafast imaging techniques.
List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: Two telecom band lasers, an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA), a Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM), electro-optic modulators (EOMs), and an electrical spectrum analyzer (ESA) are utilized.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The microresonator is pumped with two lasers, and the resulting soliton dynamics are analyzed through optical spectra, repetition rate measurements, and electro-optic sampling.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data is analyzed using spectral analysis, vector network analyzer (VNA) measurements, and simulations based on the LLE model.
