Rogue waves (RWs) are rare, extreme amplitude, localized wave packets, which have
received much interest recently in different areas of physics. Fiber lasers with their abundant …

Fiber lasers are convenient for studying extreme and rare events, such as rogue waves,
thanks to the lasers' fast dynamics. Indeed, several types of rogue wave patterns were …

We reported on the observation of dissipative rogue waves (DRWs) induced by soliton
explosions in an ultrafast fiber laser. It was found that the soliton explosions could be …

Fiber lasers offer tabletop nonlinear environments to mimic and study the complex dynamics
of nature. Optical rogue waves, rarely occurring extreme intensity fluctuations, are one of the …

Experimental evidence of rogue-wave formation in a normal-dispersion ytterbium fiber laser
is reported. Spectral filtering is a primary component of pulse-shaping in normal-dispersion …

We investigate experimental conditions in a fiber ring laser where noiselike-pulse emission
fulfills the rogue wave criteria, highlighting the influence of the chromatic dispersion sign as …

Optical rogue waves are rare, extreme fluctuations in the value of an optical field. The
term'optical rogue wave'was first used in the context of an analogy between pulse …

The science of rogue waves in optics is now over five years old, and it has emerged as an
area of broad interest to researchers across the physical sciences [1]. This area of study was …

We report on the theoretical observation of optical rogue waves in a dissipative system,
namely, a mode-locked fiber laser. These rogue waves are pulses of huge peak power …

We show the existence of self-similar giant rogue waves in a tapered graded-index
nonlinear fiber and analytically illustrate their amplification in a rather small spatiotemporal …
