Formation of optical supramolecular structures in a fibre laser by tailoring long-range soliton interactions

Optical solitons have been studied in a variety of systems for their unique properties. Here, the authors report on optically observed solitonic supramolecules, made up of large-scale structures of many solitons interacting within a fiber cavity, and study their fundamental characteristics.
