PCF-based 'parallel reactors' unveil collective matter-light analogies of soliton molecules Optical solitons are nonlinear optical wave-packets that can maintain their profile during propagation, even in the presence of moderate perturbations. They offer useful applications in optical communications, all-optical information processing and ultrafast ...
