Abstract

Phase-coherent pulsed driving of passive optical fiber resonators enables the generation of ultrashort dissipative Raman solitons with durations well below 100 fs. The existence and characteristics of such solitons critically depend on the desynchronization between the pulsed driving source and the resonator round trip time, yet the full mechanism through which these dependencies arise remains unclear. Here, we numerically demonstrate that Raman solitons can exist even under conditions of continuous-wave (CW) driving, and by numerically examining the existence and characteristics of Raman solitons under such conditions, we elucidate the role of desynchronization in pulse-driven systems. In addition to providing new insights into the existence and characteristics of ultrashort Raman solitons, our analysis yields a qualitative explanation for the range of desynchronizations over which the solitons can exist.
