All-Optical Switching and Spectroscopy of Soliton Molecules — •Felix Kurtz1, Claus Ropers1, and Georg Herink2 — 1IV. Physical Insitute, University of Göttingen, Germany — 2Experimental Physics VIII, University of Bayreuth, Germany
Bound-states of femtosecond solitons are experimentally generated and controlled in a kerr-lens mode-locked oscillator. Based on single-shot time-stretch interferometry [1], we resolve the resonance of vibrating soliton molecules [2] and demonstrate highly deterministic all-optical switching between stable doublet states of different temporal binding separation [3]. We discuss distinct interaction regimes and present a theoretical model for the underlying nonlinear dynamics.
