    In this paper, we present the optical soliton spin manipulation based-on a microring resonator. After a dark soliton pulse is fed into an input port of the microring, the orthogonal soliton pair (dark and bright solitons) can be formed within the system and detected simultaneously at the output ports. Under the resonant condition, the conversion of dark and bright solitons corresponding to the left-hand and right hand soliton orientations can be generated and seen. Whenever a soliton(photon) is absorbed by an object, an angular momentum of either + h or -h is imparted to the object, in which two possible soliton states known as soliton spins are exhibited and confirmed by the helical phase presentation. In application, the train of orthogonal solitons, i.e. many solitons (photons) with slightly different wavelengths can be generated by using the modified add-drop filter, which is available for many soliton spin investigations. © 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
