Multiband vector lattice solitons.

چکیده
We predict multiband vector solitons in nonlinear periodic systems, using photonic lattices as a prime example. The solitons consist of two optical fields arising from different bands of the transmission spectrum, which involve both bound state and radiation mode components.

Observation of two-dimensional lattice vector solitons.
We demonstrate the formation of fundamental and dipolelike vector solitons in an optically induced two-dimensional photonic lattice. Such vector solitons are realized by mutual trapping of two beams in the lattice. Our theoretical results are in good agreement with experimental observations.
متن کاملWalking-vector-soliton caging and releasing.
We address the formation and propagation of vector solitons in optical lattices in the presence of anisotropy-induced walk-off between ordinary and extraordinary polarized field components. Stable vector solitons trapped by the lattice form above a threshold power, while decreasing the lattice depth below a critical value results in the abrupt release of the caged solitons that then move across...
متن کاملVector mixed-gap surface solitons.
We elucidate the properties of mixed-gap vector surface solitons supported by the interface between a uniform medium and an optical lattice imprinted in a Kerr-type nonlinear medium. The components of such mixed-gap solitons emerge from different gaps of lattice spectrum and their mutual trapping results in the formation of stable vector states. The unstable soliton component is stabilized by t...
متن کاملFormation of discrete solitons in light-induced photonic lattices.
We present both experimental and theoretical results on discrete solitons in two-dimensional optically-induced photonic lattices in a variety of settings, including fundamental discrete solitons, vector-like discrete solitons, discrete dipole solitons, and discrete soliton trains. In each case, a clear transition from two-dimensional discrete diffraction to discrete trapping is demonstrated wit...
متن کاملObservation of two-dimensional coherent surface vector lattice solitons.
We report, to the best of our knowledge, the first experimental observation of vector surface solitons, which form at the edge and in the corner of two-dimensional laser-written waveguide arrays. These elliptically polarized vector states are composed of two orthogonally polarized components. They exist only above a power threshold and bifurcate from scalar surface solitons. The components of a...
