Abstract
The development of sources and memories capable of generating and storing high repetition-rate trains of optical solitons is required for future high-capacity fiber-based photonic networks. The generation of independent, background-free cw soliton trains by dual-frequency pumping of a variable-dispersion fiber has been recently reported.1,2 We show here that a more compact source of such independent soliton trains may be obtained by dual-frequency pumping of a modu1ational-instability (MI) fiber laser.3
