We adopt a variational technique to study the dynamics of perturbed dissipative solitons, whose evolution is governed by a Ginzburg--Landau equation (GLE). As a specific example of such solitons, we consider a silicon-based active waveguide in which free carriers are generated through two-photon absorption. In this case, dissipative solitons are perturbed by physical processes such as third-order dispersion, intrapulse Raman scattering, self-steepening, and free-carrier generation. To solve the variational problem, we adopt the Pereira--Stenflo soliton as an ansatz since this soliton is the exact solution of the unperturbed GLE. With this ansatz, we derive a set of six coupled differential equations exhibiting the dynamics of various pulse parameters. This set of equations provides considerable physical insight in the complex behavior of perturbed dissipative solitons. Its predictions are found to be in good agreement with direct numerical simulations of the GLE. More specifically, the spectral and temporal shifts of the chirped soliton induced by free carriers and intrapulse Raman scattering are predicted quite accurately. We also provide simple analytic expressions of these shifts by making suitable approximations. Our semi-analytic treatment is useful for gaining physical insight into complex soliton-evolution processes.

We demonstrate stable microresonator Kerr soliton frequency combs in a III-V platform (AlGaAs on SiO$_2$) through quenching of thermorefractive effects by cryogenic cooling to temperatures between 4~K and 20~K. This cooling reduces the resonators the rmorefractive coefficient, whose room-temperature value is an order of magnitude larger than that of other microcomb platforms like Si$_3$N$_4$, SiO$_2$, and AlN, by more than two orders of magnitude, and makes soliton states adiabatically accessible. Realizing such phase-stable soliton operation is critical for applications that fully exploit the ultra-high effective nonlinearity and high optical quality factors exhibited by this platform.
The perturbations of chirped dissipative solitons are analyzed in the spectral domain. It is shown, that the structure of the perturbed chirped dissipative soliton is highly nontrivial and has a tendency to an enhancement of the spectral perturbation s especially at the spectrum edges, where the irregularities develop. Even spectrally localized perturbations spread over a whole soliton spectrum. As a result of spectral irregularity, the chaotic dynamics develops due to the spectral loss action. In particular, the dissipative soliton can become fragmented though remains localized.
Nonlinear properties of a multi-layer stack of graphene sheets are studied. It is predicted that such a structure may support dissipative plasmon-solitons generated and supported by an external laser radiation. Novel nonlinear equations describing sp atial dynamics of the nonlinear plasmons driven by a plane wave in the Otto configuration are derived and the existence of single and multi-hump dissipative solitons in the graphene structure is predicted.
This chapter describes the discovery and stable generation of temporal dissipative Kerr solitons in continuous-wave (CW) laser driven optical microresonators. The experimental signatures as well as the temporal and spectral characteristics of this cl ass of bright solitons are discussed. Moreover, analytical and numerical descriptions are presented that do not only reproduce qualitative features but can also be used to accurately model and predict the characteristics of experimental systems. Particular emphasis lies on temporal dissipative Kerr solitons with regard to optical frequency comb generation where they are of particular importance. Here, one example is spectral broadening and self-referencing enabled by the ultra-short pulsed nature of the solitons. Another example is dissipative Kerr soliton formation in integrated on-chip microresonators where the emission of a dispersive wave allows for the direct generation of unprecedentedly broadband and coherent soliton spectra with smooth spectral envelope.
We experimentally demonstrate the existence of non dispersive solitary waves associated with a 2$pi$ phase rotation in a strongly multimode ring semiconductor laser with coherent forcing. Similarly to Bloch domain walls, such structures host a chiral charge. The numerical simulations based on a set of effective Maxwell-Bloch equations support the experimental evidence that only one sign of chiral charge is stable, which strongly affects the motion of the phase solitons. Furthermore, the reduction of the model to a modified Ginzburg Landau equation with forcing demonstrates the generality of these phenomena and exposes the impact of the lack of parity symmetry in propagative optical systems.
