Abstract
We review our recent work on the generation of novel optical solitons arising from different, high orders of dispersion and combinations thereof. By incorporating a spectral pulse-shaper in a mode-locked laser cavity, we can tailor the net-cavity dispersion, allowing us to access a wide range of new operating regimes corresponding to previously unobserved soliton pulses. We demonstrate the generation of solitons arising between self-phase modulation and any pure, negative even order of dispersion, as well as soliton molecules consisting of multiple solitons with different frequencies but that are temporally coincident.
