Manipulation of Group-Velocity-Locked Vector Solitons From Fiber Lasers

TLDR
In this article, a pseudo-high-order GVLVS with a two-humped pulse along one polarization and a single-hump pulse along the orthogonal polarization was obtained.
Abstract
Manipulation of group-velocity-locked vector solitons (GVLVSs) is numerically proposed and experimentally demonstrated. A pseudo-high-order GVLVS could be generated from a fundamental GVLVS with the help of a polarization-resolved system. Specifically, a pseudo-high-order GVLVS with a two-humped pulse along one polarization and a single-humped pulse along the orthogonal polarization could be obtained. The phase difference between the two humps could be 180°.

Switchable multifunctional terahertz metasurfaces employing vanadium dioxide.

TL;DR: This paper designs a type of switchable metasurfaces by employing vanadium dioxide (VO2), which possess tunable and diversified functionalities in the terahertz (THz) frequencies and further extends the functionalities by introducing phase-gradients when VO2 is in its fully metallic state and consequently achieve polarization-insensitive beam-steering and polarization-splitting, while maintaining broadband absorption when VO1 is in insulating state.

Stability of solitons in birefringent optical fibers. I: Equal propagation amplitudes

TL;DR: It is shown that while linear birefringence will lead to a substantial splitting of the two polarizations over 20 km, this effect can be eliminated by use of the Kerr nonlinearity.

TL;DR: In this article, the propagation of short pulses in birefringent single-mode fibers is considered, and it is shown that above a certain amplitude threshold, whose size increases with bireringence, the two partial pulses lock together and travel as one unit.
