Fig.1 Concept of STML and STDSs in MMF lasers.

Caption

a， Schematic diagram of dissipative soliton formation in SMF lasers and MMF lasers. b, An illustration of a typical STML MMF laser layout. Depending on the value of intermode dispersion, different mechanisms (Kerr nonlinearity, spatiotemporal saturable absorber, spatial coupling/filtering) can contribute differently to balancing the intermode dispersion. c, Schematic diagrams of pulse reactions for three mechanisms as intermode dispersion increases.
