Observation of Three Bound States From a Topological Insulator Mode-Locked Soliton Fiber Laser

We report on the generation of three types of bound states in a topological insulator-based mode-locked fiber laser. Benefiting from the excellent performance of the polyvinyl alcohol-based topological insulator saturable absorber (SA), we have achieved three types of bound solitons. The bound state...
