Airy beams propagation in optically induced photonic lattices
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show both experimentally and numerically, control over the acceleration of two-dimensional Airy beam propagating in optically induced photonic lattice. Varying the lattice strength and including various defects we can reach a state, where the acceleration is completely stopped. We find an additional class of discrete lattice beams, localized and defect modes observed with Airy beams propagating in diamond optically induced photonic lattice.

Stable solitons in elliptical photonic lattices.
We introduce the basic properties of solitons in elliptical photonic lattices induced optically by a superposition of Mathieu beams. Owing to the modulation of the intensity along its elliptical rings, these lattices allow novel dynamics of propagation, being possible, for the first time to our knowledge, to propagate solitons in an elliptic motion with varying rotation rate.
متن کاملAcceleration control of Airy beams with optically induced refractive-index gradient.
We demonstrate both experimentally and theoretically controlled acceleration of one- and two-dimensional Airy beams in optically induced refractive-index potentials. Enhancement as well as reduction of beam acceleration are realized by changing the index gradient, while the beam shape is maintained during propagation through the linear optical potential. Our results of active acceleration manip...
متن کاملLight localization in azimuthally modulated Bessel photonic lattices
We study the propagation and localization of light beams in azimuthally modulated Bessel photonic lattices induced optically in photorefractive crystals; such lattices resemble highly nonlinear micro-structured fibres. We report on the experimental observation of discrete diffraction, nonlinear localization, and subsequent formation of spatial solitons. Our experimental results are confirmed by...

We discuss soliton control in reconfigurable optically-induced photonic lattices created by three interfering beams. We reveal novel dynamical regimes for strongly localized solitons, including binary switching and soliton revivals through resonant wave mixing.
متن کاملBending light via adiabatic optical transition in longitudinally modulated photonic lattices
Bending light in a controllable way is desired in various applications such as beam steering, navigating and cloaking. Different from the conventional way to bend light by refractive index gradient, transformation optics or special beams through wavefront design such as Airy beams and surface plasmons, we proposed a mechanism to bend light via resonant adiabatic optical transition between Floqu...
