Optical localized states are usually defined as self-localized bistable packets of light which exist as independently controllable optical intensity pulses either in the longitudinal or transverse dimension of nonlinear optical systems. Here we provide the first experimental and analytical demonstration of the existence of longitudinal localized states which exist fundamentally in the phase of laser light. These robust and versatile phase bits can be individually nucleated and canceled in an injection-locked semiconductor laser operated in a neuron- like excitable regime and submitted to delayed feedback. The demonstration of their control opens the way to their use as phase information units in next generation coherent communication systems. We analyze our observations in terms of a generic model which confirms the topological nature of the phase bits and discloses their formal but profound analogy with Sine-Gordon solitons.

Pulsating behavior is a universal phenomenon in versatile fields. In nonlinear dissipative systems, the solitons could also pulsate under proper conditions and show many interesting dynamics. However, the pulsation dynamics is generally concerned wit
h single soliton case. Herein, by utilizing real-time spectroscopy technique, namely, dispersive Fourier-transform (DFT), we reveal the versatile categories of pulsating solitons in a fiber laser. In particular, the weak to strong explosive behaviors of pulsating soliton, as well as the rogue wave generation during explosions were observed. Moreover, the concept of soliton pulsation was extended to the multi-soliton case. It is found that the simultaneous pulsation of energy, separation and relative phase difference could be observed for solitons inside the molecule, while the pulsations of each individual in multi-soliton bunch could be regular or irregular. These findings would further enrich the ultrafast dynamics of dissipative solitons in nonlinear optical systems.
We report the first observation of lasing in topological edge states in a 1D Su-Schrieffer-Heeger active array of resonators. We show that in the presence of chiral-time ($mathcal{CT}$) symmetry, this non-Hermitian topological structure can experienc
e complex phase transitions that alter the emission spectra as well as the ensued mode competition between edge and bulk states. The onset of these phase transitions is found to occur at the boundaries associated with the complex geometric phase- a generalized version of the Berry phase in Hermitian settings. Our experiments and theoretical analysis demonstrate that the topology of the system plays a key role in determining its operation when it lases: topologically controlled lasing.
We report on the experimental observation of a new type of dark soliton in a fiber laser made of all normal group velocity dispersion fibers. It was shown that the soliton is formed due to the cross coupling between two different wavelength laser bea
ms and has the characteristic of separating the two different wavelength laser emissions. Moreover, we show experimentally that the dual-wavelength dark solitons have a much lower pump threshold than that of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation dark solitons formed in the same laser.
We consider a topological Floquet insulator consisting of two honeycomb arrays of identical waveguides having opposite helicities. The interface between the arrays supports two distinct topological edge states, which can be resonantly coupled by addi
tional weak longitudinal refractive index modulation with a period larger than the helix period. In the presence of Kerr nonlinearity, such coupled edge states enable topological Bragg solitons. Theory and examples of such solitons are presented.
Temporal solitons in driven microresonator, fiber-resonator, and bulk enhancement cavities enable attractive optical sources for spectroscopy, communications, and metrology. Here we present theoretical and experimental observations of a new class of
temporal optical soliton characterized by pulses with large and positive chirp in normal dispersion resonators with strong spectral filtering. Numerical simulations reveal stable waveforms over a wide new range of parameters including highly chirped pulses at large drive powers. Chirped temporal solitons matching predictions are observed in experiments with normal dispersion fiber resonators strongly driven with nanosecond pulses. Scaling laws are developed and provide simple design guidelines for generating chirped temporal solitons in bulk- and micro-resonator, in addition to fiber-resonator platforms. The relationship between the chirped solutions and other stable waveforms in normal and anomalous dispersion resonators is examined. Chirped temporal solitons represent a promising new resource for frequency-comb and ultrashort-pulse generation.
