摘要
We present a theoretical and experimental study of the modulation instability process in a dispersion oscillating passive fiber-ring resonator in the low dispersion region. Generally, the modulation of the dispersion along the cavity length is responsible for the emergence of a regime characterised by multiple parametric resonances (or Faraday instabilities). We show that, under weak dispersion conditions, a huge number of Faraday sidebands can grow under the influence of fourth order dispersion. We specifically designed a piecewise uniform fiber-ring cavity and report on experiments that confirm our theoretical predictions. We recorded the dynamics of this system revealing strong interactions between the different sidebands in agreement with numerical simulations.
