Primarily isotropic nature of photorefractive screening solitons and the interactions between them.
We present experimental evidence demonstrating that the photorefractive-index change responsible for the formation of photorefractive spatial screening solitons and coherent collisions between them is primarily isotropic in nature, even though the photorefractive medium is inherently anisotropic.
متن کاملInteractions between spatial screening solitons propagating in opposite directions
Collision between solitons is perhaps the most fascinating feature of soliton phenomena, because the interacting self-trapped wave packets exhibit many particlelike features. Over the years, soliton collisions have been extensively studied theoretically and experimentally, in Kerr and saturable nonlinear media, revealing a variety of effects. Among these are elastic and inelastic collisions, fu...
متن کاملCoherent and Incoherent Contributions to Multisoliton Complexes
We analyze multisoliton complexes and their dynamics in Kerr-like nonlinear media. The field in each of M incoherently interacting components is calculated using an integrable set of coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. We obtain a general N-soliton solution describing propagation of multisoliton complexes and their collisions. The evolution of such higher-order soliton beams is determined ...
متن کاملSpatial soliton pairs in an unbiased photovoltaic-photorefractive crystal circuit
: Optical separate spatial dark and bright soliton pairs in steady-state case in one dimension, for a series circuit consisting of two-photon photorefractive (PR) crystal are investigated. Each crystal can be supported the spatial soliton, and at least one must be photovoltaic. The two solitons are known collectively as separate spatial soliton pairs with dark–dark, bright–dark and bright–brigh...
متن کاملComputing with Solitons: A Review and Prospectus
We review work on computing with solitons, from the discovery of solitons in cellular au-tomata, to an abstract model for particle computation (particle machines), to information transfer in collisions of (continuum) optical solitons, to state transformations in collisions of Manakov (vector) solitons. We conclude by discussing open problems and the prospects for practical applications using op...
