The effects of high-order dispersion of photonic bandgap fibre on a femtosecond fibre laser have been analysed. Asymmetrical spectral distribution of soliton sidebands is attributed to the high value of the third-order dispersion in bandgap fibre that provides unusual cavity characteristics when dispersion changes the regime from anomalous to normal across the bandwidth of optical pulses.
