| contents | We demonstrate that the temporal reflection of a weak dispersive pulse on a soliton in media with a frequency-dependent nonlinearity leads to the generation of new solitons, whose number can be selected by tuning parameters of the dispersive pulse. By carefully analyzing the different processes involved, we show that a virtuous interplay between Raman scattering and a zero-nonlinearity wavelength is a key enabler for soliton generation to occur, limiting the initial soliton redshift and allowing for an efficient energy transfer between the dispersive pulse and its reflection. Finally, we believe results presented in this work may contribute guidelines for the generation of short and intense pulses for various photonic applications. |
