We present analytical theory of dissipative soliton absorption spectroscopy. A dissipative soliton formed in an all-normal-dispersion oscillator with a narrowband intracavity absorber acquires spectral features that follow the index of refraction of the absorber, as confirmed by numerical simulations and experimental evidence. In contrast to the soliton absorption spectroscopy in an anomalous dispersion regime, we anticipate resonant enhancement of a modulation signal near the pulse spectrum edges that results in an additional signal gain. We further show that the pulse acquires a nanosecond-long tail in the time domain and provide simple formula for estimation of its energy content.

We consider turbulence of waves interacting weakly via four-wave scattering (sea waves, plasma waves, spin waves, etc.). In the first order in the interaction, a closed kinetic equation has stationary solutions describing turbulent cascades.

Driven optical cavities containing a nonlinear medium support stable dissipative solitons, cavity solitons, in the form of bright or dark spots of light on a uniformly-lit background. Broadening effects due to diffraction or group velocity dispersion are balanced by the nonlinear interaction with the medium while cavity losses balance the input energy. The history, properties, physical interpretation and wide application of cavity solitons are reviewed.

A wavelength-switchable ytterbium-doped mode-locked fiber laser is reported in this article. Two Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZIs, denoted as MZI1, MZI2) with close free spectral ranges (FSRs) are connected in series to form a Vernier effect sensor. By utilizing the filtering effect of the Vernier effect sensor, the wavelength-switchable output of an ytterbium-doped mode-locked fiber laser is realized.

By controlling intracavity net dispersion using passive fibers, we observed soliton, stretched-pulse, and dissipative-soliton mode-locked operations. In particular, the broadest output spectrum with a bandwidth at 30 dB below the peak of 320 nm and a pulse duration of 61 fs were obtained at a net dispersion of -0.

Micro-nano fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors have been demonstrated as effective in-situ optical temperature probes for measuring local temperatures. Time-stretch dispersion Fourier transform (TS-DFT) that enables fast, continuous, single-shot measurements in optical sensing has been integrated with a micro-nano FBG probe (FBG) for local temperature sensing.
