Symbiotic quadratic soliton mode-locked non-degenerate optical parametric oscillators
Abstract:
We analytically and numerically unveil the existence condition of symbiotic solitons in doubly resonant non-degenerate optical parametric oscillators. Resonant signal and idler with terahertz comb bandwidth and femtosecond pulse duration in the mid-infrared are attainable through this symbiotic soliton mode-locking technique. The group velocity mismatches between the three interacting waves are the dominant cause of the symbiotic soliton perturbation, and their effects are numerically investigated in detail. The principle can be applied to commonly used mid-infrared material platforms, making it a competitive ultrashort pulse and broadband comb source architecture.
