Abstract
Examples of the present disclosure include the use of a topological system including an array of coupled ring resonators that exhibits topological edge states to generate frequency combs and temporal dissipative Kerr solitons. The topological edge states constitute a travelling-wave super-ring resonator causing generation of at least coherent nested optical frequency combs, and self-formation of nested temporal solitons that are robust against defects in the array at a mode efficiency exceeding 50%.
