Abstract
We report the experimental observation of modulation instability in the weak normal dispersion region of a passive fiber ring cavity. We show that the fourth-order dispersion strongly modifies the dynamics of the cavity through the generation of new instability bands. Experimental results are in excellent agreement with theoretical predictions and numerical simulations.
