Dissipative soliton resonance (DSR) refers to a phenomenon where the energy of the stable soliton solution increases to extremely large values in a nonlinear dissipative system modeled by the complex cubic-quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation (CGLE) [1]. It occurs in the vicinity of a specific hyper-surface in the multi-dimensional space of the CGLE parameters. The phenomenon has applications in designing laser oscillators generating ultra-high energy pulses, since the dynamics of such lasers can be well-modeled by the CGLE. The DSR was first found in normally-dispersive media, in concordance with the current design trend for high-energy mode-locked laser oscillators [2–4]. However, we have shown recently that they also exist in anomalous media, opening the possibility of generating ultra-high energy pulses with anomalous path-averaged cavity dispersion [5, 6].
