Abstract

The optical Darboux transformer for solitons is introduced as a photonic device that performs the Darboux transformation directly in the optical domain. This enables two major advances for optical signal processing based on the nonlinear Fourier transform: (i)the multiplexing of solitonic waveforms corresponding to different discrete eigenvalues of the Zakharov-Shabat system, and (ii)the selective filtering of an arbitrary number of individual solitons too. The optical Darboux transformer can be built using existing commercially available photonic technology components and constitutes a universal tool for signal processing, optical communications, optical rogue waves generation, and waveform shaping and control in the nonlinear Fourier domain.
