One arXiv a day keeps the doctor away! Checkout our new study led by @CMasarabi, about cavity solitons formation in optical parametric oscillators 👀
20 Dec 2022
Our new preprint is online! 📢😍 While cavity solitons are usually externally driven (b), we show that parametric driving (a) can lead to a much higher efficiency of energy conversion ⚡⚡#Kerrcomb

New arXiv preprint from our group, the first on synthetic dimensions! We explore its nonlinear dynamics and show that a cavity soliton can exhibit Bloch oscillations! Towards nonlinear topological photonics? #CavitySoliton @Nico_Englebert @sisseleo
21 Dec 2021
Check out our new arXiv preprint: "Bloch Oscillations of Driven Dissipative Solitons in a Synthetic Dimension". We show that cavity solitons exhibit a new type of Bloch oscillations that depends on the applied force!

I will present our latest results at FiO LS at 20:30 (UTC 1, Belgian time) today. The presentation will be done on a green background; will you see the difference with one on site? 😄 #FiO #NonlinearOptics #CavitySoliton @OperaPhotonics @PolytechBXL @ULBRecherche @frsFNRS
