Soliton stripes in two-dimensional nonlinear photonic lattices.
We study experimentally the interaction of a soliton with a nonlinear lattice. We observe the formation of a novel type of composite soliton created by strong coupling of mutually incoherent periodic and localized beam components. By imposing an initial transverse momentum on the soliton stripe, we observe the effect of lattice compression and deformation.
متن کاملSymmetric and antisymmetric soliton states in two-dimensional photonic lattices.
We study the dynamics of off-site excitation in an optically induced waveguide lattice. A single beam centered between two waveguides leads to an asymmetric beam profile as the nonlinearity reaches a threshold. When two probe beams are launched in parallel into two nearby off-site locations, they form symmetric or antisymmetric (twisted) soliton states, depending on their relative phase. A tran...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional self-trapped nonlinear photonic lattices.
We predict theoretically and generate in a photorefractive crystal two-dimensional self-trapped periodic waves of different symmetries, including vortex lattices-patterns of phase dislocations with internal energy flows. We demonstrate that these nonlinear waves exist even with anisotropic nonlocal nonlinearity when the optically-induced periodic refractive index becomes highly anisotropic, and...
متن کاملNonlinear Bloch modes in two-dimensional photonic lattices.
We generate experimentally different types of two-dimensional Bloch waves of a square photonic lattice by employing the phase imprinting technique.We probe the local dispersion of the Bloch modes in the photonic lattice by analyzing the linear diffraction of beams associated with the high-symmetry points of the Brillouin zone, and also distinguish the regimes of normal, anomalous, and anisotrop...
متن کاملSoliton trains in photonic lattices.
We address the formation and propagation of multi-spot soliton packets in saturable Kerr nonlinear media with an imprinted harmonic transverse modulation of the refractive index. We show that, in sharp contrast to homogeneous media where stable multi-peaked solitons do not exist, the photonic lattices support stable higher-order structures in the form of soliton packets, or soliton trains. Intu...
