Controlled Generation of Bright or Dark Solitons in a Fiber Laser by Intracavity Nonlinear Absorber

We numerically found that an intracavity nonlinear absorber (saturable absorber or reversed saturable absorber) plays a crucial role in the formation of dissipative bright or dark solitons in a fiber laser. The operation of an all-normal-dispersion fiber laser could evolve from a bright-soliton emis...
