Theory of soliton self-frequency shift in silica optical microresonators with a modified Raman response by the Boson
Abstract:
We theoretically study the Raman-induced self-frequency shift of dissipative Kerr soliton in silica optical resonators by taking into consideration the Boson peak. We find that the Boson peak will greatly increase the soliton self-frequency shift and contribute even more than the shift induced by the Lorentzian response for certain pulse durations. We also show that the revised Raman shock time is associated with the pulse width even for a relatively long pulse. Moreover, we demonstrate that the background continuous wave decreases the self-frequency shift of the soliton via the interference with the soliton. Our theoretical and simulated results display excellent agreement with the previous experimental values in the silica-based Kerr-soliton microcomb.

Raman Spectroscopy Instrumentation: Overview
The monochromatic laser source, typically using visible or near-infrared radiation, generates a highly focused beam of light. This light interacts with the molecules of the sample, scattering some of the light.
