Structural dissipative solitons in passive mode-locked fiber lasers.
On the basis of numerical simulation of fiber laser passive mode locking with anomalous dispersion we have found the dissipative solitons with powerful pedestals having oscillating structure. The pedestal structure causes a complex structural spectrum. These solitons can be multistable: with the same laser parameters the pedestals can have different structures. For some nonlinear-dispersion parameters there exist solitons with asymmetric structural pedestals moving relatively solitons with symmetric ones.
