Unified Simulation Framework for Multi-Soliton Dynamics in Femtosecond Lasers — •Julia A. Lang1, Julien Javaloyes2, Svetlana V. Gurevich3, and Georg Herink1 — 1University of Bayreuth, Germany — 2University of the Balearic Islands, Spain — 3University of Münster, Germany
Ultrafast lasers exhibit a rich variety of multi-pulse dynamics, strongly influenced by the underlying laser architecture and system-specific nonlinear effects.
In this contribution, we present a novel simulation approach that flexibly integrates diverse effects into a single, unified framework. A key feature of our model is the inclusion of full gain dynamics. This enables us to reproduce a wide range of experimentally observed soliton interactions, including harmonic mode-locking in erbium fiber lasers [1], the formation of soliton molecules via delayed feedback [2] or Raman-induced soliton molecules in Ti:sapphire lasers [2].
We introduce a classification of characteristic inter-soliton trajectories by attributing hierarchies of critical weights to nonlinear effects. The resultant classification provides deeper insights into the origins of multi-pulse interactions and enables novel approaches for harnessing multi-soliton applications.
