Abstract

We demonstrate a novel type of ultrashort optical soliton bound states with molecule-like properties. These two-color solitons exhibit a strong binding energy, dipole-like radiation, and show dynamics of controlled soliton evaporation. Furthermore, the given interaction concept enables a classical analog of trapped states in an attractive quantum potential.
