Figure 1 | Concept of parallel optical-soliton reactors.

Caption

a. Schematic of the parallel optical-soliton reactors based on a mode-locked ring-fibre laser cavity. The temporal optomechanical (OM) lattice enabled by PCF provides trapping potentials to host parallel soliton interactions, while global and individual manipulations can be applied to control the interaction. b. PCF microstructure. c. Schematic of controlled soliton reactions in parallel trapping potentials. The solitonic elements trapped in each reactor can be transitioned between phase-uncorrelated long-range bound states and phase-locked soliton molecules, corresponding to the synthesis and dissociation of soliton molecules.
