The evolution of ultrafast laser technology hinges partially on the understanding of the soliton nonlinear dynamics. Recently, the concept of pure-quartic soliton (PQS) that arises from the balance of pure negative fourth-order dispersion (FOD) and nonlinearity was proposed to generate high peak power pulse. Herein, we investigate the generation of dissipative pure-quartic soliton (DPQS) in a fiber laser, which is balanced among the positive FOD, nonlinearity, gain and loss. The DPQS features the shape-preserving propagation despite the asymmetrical temporal profile at higher pulse energy. It is found that the asymmetrical temporal profile of DPQS is resulted from the mismatching of the phase shift profiles caused by self-phase modulation and FOD. Moreover, it is demonstrated that the DPQS possesses a higher energy-scaling ability compared to conventional dissipative soliton, owing to the nonlinear relationship between the pulse energy and pulse duration. These findings demonstrated that the employment of positive FOD could be a promising way for manipulation of optical pulse as well as the improvement of laser performance.
