Abstract

We address the challenge of configuring a fiber laser cavity to enable efficient access to multi-pulse structures such as dissipative soliton molecules. We theoretically compare multi-pulsing routes in the parameter space of the laser. By using a two-dimensional parameter space, we experimentally demonstrate an important reduction in the laser pumping power required to form soliton molecules.
