Abstract
It's challenging to measure non-repetitive events in real time in the field of instrumentation and measurement. Dispersive Fourier transformation is an emerging method that permits capture of rare events, such as optical rogue waves and rare cancer cells in blood. This Review article covers the principle of dispersive Fourier transformation and its implementation in diverse applications.

Polarization evolution dynamics of dissipative soliton fiber lasers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors characterize probabilistic polarization distributions in the buildup of dissipative solitons in a net-normal dispersion fiber laser system, where the output optical spectra under different pump powers are filtered by a tunable filter and are detected by a polarization state analyzer.

Generation and observation of ultrafast spectro-temporal dynamics of different pulsating solitons from a fiber laser.

TL;DR: Three types of pulsating solitons are experimentally generated and observed in a dispersion-managed, hybrid mode-locked fiber laser to provide further insights into the complex nonlinear dynamics in lasers and potential ways to the design such systems to deliver targeted soliton outputs for potential applications.

High-Acquisition-Rate Single-Shot Pump-Probe Measurements Using Time-Stretching Method.

TL;DR: A new method is demonstrated to circumvent difficulties and to greatly simplify the detection setup by using a long, single-mode optical fiber and a fast photodiode to investigate the power dependence of the Kerr signal in LiNbO3, observing an irreversible transmission change of a phase change material, and capturing terahertz waveforms.
