Collision-induced shape transformations of partially coherent solitons
Partially coherent solitons are objects which have recently attracted a great deal of attention @1–10#. Focusing of the spatially partially coherent beams has been suggested as early as in 1967 @11# and studied subsequently in @12,13#. On the other hand, temporally incoherent solitons have been considered in the original works of Hasegawa @14–16#, both for plasma waves and for nonlinear pulses ...
متن کاملPartially coherent solitons of variable shape in a slow Kerr-like medium: exact solutions.
We carry out a theoretical investigation of the properties of partially coherent solitons for media which have a slow Kerr-like nonlinearity. We find exact solutions of the Nth-order Manakov equations in a general form. These describe partially coherent solitons (PCSs) and their collisions. In fact, the exact solutions allow us to analyze important properties of PCSs such as stationary profiles...
متن کاملExact soliton solutions of coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations: shape-changing collisions, logic gates, and partially coherent solitons.
The different dynamical features underlying soliton interactions in coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations, which model multimode wave propagation under varied physical situations in nonlinear optics, are studied. In this paper, by explicitly constructing multisoliton solutions (up to four-soliton solutions) for two-coupled and arbitrary N-coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations using the Hiro...
متن کاملAsymmetric partially coherent solitons in saturable nonlinear media.
We investigate theoretically properties of partially coherent solitons in optical nonlinear media with slow saturable nonlinearity. We have found numerically that such a medium can support spatial solitons which are asymmetric in shape and are composed of only a finite number of modes associated with the self-induced waveguide. It is shown that these asymmetric spatial solitons can propagate ma...
متن کاملExperiments on partially coherent photorefractive solitons
We provide an overview of experimental studies on partially coherent spatial solitons in photorefractive materials, including the first experimental demonstration of bright and dark incoherent solitons, incoherent vortex solitons, Y-junction dark solitons and anti-dark solitons, and pixel-like incoherent soliton arrays. These solitons are created with partially spatially incoherent light beams ...
