TL;DR: In this article, a robust and simple way to increase the soliton access window by using an auxiliary laser that passively stabilizes intracavity power was proposed. But this scheme does not address the problem of the sudden change in circulating power (soliton step) during transition into soliton regime.

Microresonator Isolators and Circulators Based on the Intrinsic Nonreciprocity of the Kerr Effect
Leonardo Del Bino,Leonardo Del Bino,Jonathan M. Silver,Michael T. M. Woodley,Michael T. M. Woodley,Sarah L. Stebbings,Xin Xhao,Xin Xhao,Pascal Del'Haye +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the nonlinear interaction between counterpropagating light in a Kerr medium leads to spontaneous symmetry breaking, with the result that light of a given frequency can circulate in one direction, but not in both directions simultaneously.

Universal symmetry-breaking dynamics for the Kerr interaction of counterpropagating light in dielectric ring resonators
Michael T. M. Woodley,Michael T. M. Woodley,Jonathan M. Silver,Lewis Hill,François Copie,Leonardo Del Bino,Leonardo Del Bino,Shuangyou Zhang,Gian-Luca Oppo,Pascal Del'Haye +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present analytical and dynamical models for the nonlinear Kerr interaction of counterpropagating light in a dielectric ring resonator, indicating divergent sensitivity to small external perturbations.
Terahertz wave generation using a soliton microcomb.
Shuangyou Zhang,Jonathan M. Silver,Xiaobang Shang,Leonardo Del Bino,Nick M. Ridler,Pascal Del'Haye +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a micro-resonator-based frequency comb (microcomb) was used for terahertz wave generation using a unit-carrier photodiode (UTC-PD).

Terahertz wave generation using a soliton microcomb
Shuangyou Zhang,Jonathan M. Silver,Xiaobang Shang,Leonardo Del Bino,Nick M. Ridler,Pascal Del'Haye +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a micro-resonator-based frequency comb (microcomb) was used to generate stable terahertz wave at the soliton's repetition rate (331 GHz).
