This chapter describes the discovery and stable generation of temporal dissipative Kerr
solitons in continuous‐wave (CW) laser‐driven optical microresonators. The experimental …

Coherent ranging, also known as frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) laser-
based light detection and ranging (lidar) is used for long-range three-dimensional distance …

Temporal cavity solitons are optical pulses that can persist in passive resonators, such as
microresonators and fiber-based resonators. They can preserve their shape and energy …

External driving of passive, nonlinear optical resonators has emerged over the past decade
as a novel route for the generation of ultrashort optical pulses and corresponding broadband …

Solitons are self-sustained wavepackets that occur in many physical systems. Their recent
demonstration in optical microresonators has provided a new platform for the study of …

Driven Kerr nonlinear optical resonators can sustain localized structures known as
dissipative Kerr cavity solitons, which have recently attracted significant attention as the …

We investigate the conversion efficiency (CE) of soliton modelocked Kerr frequency combs.
Our analysis reveals three distinct scaling regimes of CE with the cavity free spectral range …

We investigate the influence of the stimulated Raman scattering on the formation of bright
and dark localized states in all-fiber resonators subject to a coherent optical injection, when …

Microcavity solitons enable miniaturized coherent frequency comb sources. However, the
formation of microcavity solitons can be disrupted by stimulated Raman scattering …
