Abstract

This letter is to pave the way towards the demonstration of spatiotemporal similariton pulses evolution in passive multimode fibers with Raman amplification. We present numerically these issues in a graded-index and step-index multimode fibers and provide a first look at the complex spatiotemporal dynamics of similariton pulses. The results showed that the similariton pulses can be generated in both multimode fibers. The temporal and the spectral evolution of the pulses can be characterized as parabolic shapes with linear chirp and kW peak power. By compressed these, high energy femtoseconds pulses can be obtained starting initial picoseconds pulses. Spatial beam profile could be preserved in both multimode fibers under the predominantly excitation of the fundamental mode. Specifically, Raman amplification and similariton pulses generation in graded-index multimode fiber improves the spatial beam cleaning process under the different initial condition.

Selective sparsity-enhanced synchronization in disordered semiconductor laser networks

Biological networks tend to leverage selective sparsity as an economic strategy to optimize function while minimizing wiring costs. In contrast, achieving synchronization in engineered systems such as semiconductor laser arrays is traditionally expected to require resource-intensive coupling %strong connections to overcome intrinsic frequency disorders. We demonstrate that selectively coupled sparse networks can outperform fully connected architectures, achieving near-complete synchronization with a significantly reduced coupling budget. Using an evolutionary algorithm, we identify a ``pairing opposites" principle: optimal structures specifically prioritize connections between oscillators with the largest opposite frequency detuning. This topology neutralizes dynamical interference induced by redundant links, leading to stable synchronization. We formalize this mechanism through a thermodynamic potential framework, mapping time-delayed phase dynamics to an energy landscape where optimal sparsity prunes additional states to stabilize global phase-locking. Furthermore, we show that the optimal connectivity scales inversely with system size. This principle provides a resource-efficient blueprint for synchronizing and stabilizing diverse complex networks, from photonic arrays to neuromorphic hardware.

Super-resolution microscopy via fluctuation-enhanced spatial mode demultiplexing

We introduce a superresolution technique that combines spatial mode demultiplexing (SPADE) with emitter blinking. We show that temporal fluctuations not only enhance the precision of SPADE imaging, but also drastically simplify the measurement required to recover full object information---in the presence of fluctuations, SPADE can be replaced by the much simpler image inversion interferometry. Both gains are enabled by exploiting temporal cumulants of the detected signal. We further show that the proposed fluctuation-enhanced techniques are significantly more robust to dark-count noise than conventional SPADE.

Phase-controlled transport of Floquet-driven compact chiral photonic states

The Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect remains a cornerstone of fundamental and applied physics. In this work, we utilize the AB caging effect originated from an effective magnetic field induced by multiorbital interactions, creating an all flat band (FB) lattice system. Normally, FB states are known for being compact in space and having a zero tail; therefore, their mobility in a linear environment is generally understood as impossible. We propose a Floquet driving protocol in an all-FB photonic system to fully control the dynamics of localized photonic states. The modulation of the Hamiltonian along the propagation coordinate allows the translation of compact states in the direction of constructive interference, resulting in an effective stroboscopic quantum walk-like effect. We find that the traveling states exist in chiral pairs. We experimentally implement the Floquet driven protocol using femtosecond laser written photonic waveguides and demonstrate directional control of the propagation, determined by the relative phase of the input condition.
