Fig. 4: Formation and internal dynamics of soliton complexes in the clockwise direction.
From: Pulse-onset dynamics in a bidirectional mode-locked fibre laser via instabilities
a Dispersion Fourier transform spectra, and b Autocorrelation function traces. c Shot-to-shot variation of the pulse energy normalised to the singe-soliton energy in the steady-state, and d evolution of the localisation parameter. The grey lines show the pulse energy and localisation parameter for mode-locking operation in the steady-state.
