Multiple-Pulse Operation and Bound States of Solitons in Passive Mode-Locked Fiber Lasers

Figure 10

Temporal (a) and spectral (b) distributions of radiation for the single-soliton passive mode-locking. The upper right inset in (a) shows the multiplied soliton pedestal. The change of the phase along the pulse is presented in (a). All phase magnitudes are reduced to the interval ( ). In the point of the pulse with a maximum amplitude, the phase is equal to zero. The black squares and circles correspond to the points of the pulse where its phase is equal to and 0, correspondingly.
