Pure high-order dispersion dissipative Kerr solitons in optical cavities
Abstract:
Through numerical simulations, we demonstrate the existence of an infinite family of temporal cavity solitons (CSs), which balance arbitrary negative pure, even-order dispersion k and self-phase modulation, as well as loss and parametric gain. These correspond to frequency combs with increasingly flatter spectra as k increases. We determine the analytic forms of these solitons at high pump power and detuning and derive that their energy is related to the pulse duration Δτ as Δτ-(k-1).

Theories of Dissolution: Diffusion Layer Model
This process starts with a thin layer, saturated with the drug, forming at the interface between the solid and liquid. The solute then diffuses from this layer into the main solution. The Noyes-Whitney equation suggests that the rate of dissolution relies on the diffusion...
