description

Dissipative soliton resonance (DSR) occurs in the close vicinity of a hypersurface in the space of parameters of the equation governing propagation in a dissipative nonlinear medium. Pulsed solutions can acquire virtually unlimited energies as soon as the equation parameters converge toward that specific hypersurface. Here we extend previous studies that have recently unveiled DSRs from the complex cubic-quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation. We clearly confirm the existence of DSR for a wide range of parameters in both regimes of chromatic dispersion, and we establish general features of the ultra-high-energy pulses that can be found close to a DSR. Application to high-energy mode-locked fiber oscillators is discussed. © 2010 Optical Society of America.
