We provide a complete analysis, from theory to experiment, of the spontaneous emergence discretized conical wave X-type (i.e., localized 2D+1 space-time wavepacket) when an intense ultrashort pulse nonlinearly propagates in multimode fiber. In particular, we reveal that this spatiotemporal phenomenon corresponds broadband intermodal dispersive emission unsteady structure formed during nonlinear propagation. Theoretical phase-matching predictions are experimentally and numerically confirmed...

A physical system is considered chiral when it can be distinguished from its mirror image, regardless of the applied translation and rotation. An electromagnetic wave through two essential forms angular momenta: spin orbital. Although interaction between momentum light matter now well known, way possessing an orbital interacts with a topic growing interest. In particular, specific signatures light–matter that depend on sign remain elusive. We demonstrate here chirality takes place as soon...

Many ultrafast optics applications require uniform and smooth spectral temporal intensity profiles of ultrashort laser pulses. All normal dispersion (ANDi), coherent light pulses from fiber-based supercontinuum (SC) are often assumed to fulfill these requirements, backed up by many numerical simulations. However, detailed experimental data on the spectro-temporal characteristics ANDi SC is scarce.
