Unusual Evolutions of Dissipative-Soliton-Resonance Pulses in an All-Normal Dispersion Fiber Laser

We experimentally report the novel evolutions of dissipative-soliton-resonance (DSR) pulses with respect to the pump power in an all-normal-dispersion fiber laser based on a nonlinear optical loop mirror. By solely increasing the pump power, pulse breaking of the DSR pulses was observed apart from t...
