Solitons in PT-symmetric periodic systems with the logarithmically saturable nonlinearity

چکیده
We report on the formation and stability of induced solitons in parity-time (PT) symmetric periodic systems with the logarithmically saturable nonlinearity. Both on-site and off-site lattice solitons exist for the self-focusing nonlinearity. The most intriguing result is that the above solitons can also be realized inside the several higher-order bands of the band structure, due to the change of nonlinear type with the soliton power. Stability analysis shows that on-site solitons are linearly stably, and off-site solitons are unstable in their existence domain.

Numerical Analysis of Stability for Temporal Bright Solitons in a PT-Symmetric NLDC
PT-Symmetry is one of the interesting topics in quantum mechanics and optics. One of the demonstration of PT-Symmetric effects in optics is appeared in the nonlinear directional coupler (NLDC). In the paper we numerically investigate the stability of temporal bright solitons propagate in a PT-Symmetric NLDC by considering gain in bar and loss in cross. By using the analytical solutions of pertu...
متن کاملExponential Asymptotics for Solitons in PT -Symmetric Periodic Potentials
Solitons in one-dimensional parity-time (PT )-symmetric periodic potentials are studied using exponential asymptotics. The new feature of this exponential asymptotics is that, unlike conservative periodic potentials, the inner and outer integral equations arising in this analysis are both coupled systems due to complex-valued solitons. Solving these coupled systems, we show that two soliton fam...

متن کاملObservation of optical solitons in PT-symmetric lattices
Controlling light transport in nonlinear active environments is a topic of considerable interest in the field of optics. In such complex arrangements, of particular importance is to devise strategies to subdue chaotic behaviour even in the presence of gain/loss and nonlinearity, which often assume adversarial roles. Quite recently, notions of parity-time (PT) symmetry have been suggested in pho...
متن کاملSpatial Solitons in Parity-time-symmetric Mixed Linear-nonlinear Optical Lattices: Recent Theoretical Results
We provide a brief review of recent theoretical studies of optical spatial solitons in parity-time(PT-) symmetric mixed linear-nonlinear lattices. The existence and stability of optical spatial solitons forming in PT-symmetric lattices with spatially periodic modulation of the Kerr nonlinearity are briefly overviewed. The linear optical lattices are considered to be either regular lattices or s...
