Deflection of quadratic solitons at edge dislocations.

چکیده
We report the observation of deflection of optical solitons generated in the frequency doubling of light beams containing edgelike topological amplitude and phase dislocations. The angular deflection of the solitons was found to be controllable through the position of the dislocation. The experiments were conducted near phase matching in a bulk potassium titanyl phosphate crystal pumped with picosecond light pulses at 1064 nm.

متن کاملTwo-color surface lattice solitons.
We study the properties of surface solitons generated at the edge of a semi-infinite photonic lattice in nonlinear quadratic media, namely two-color surface lattice solitons. We analyze the impact of phase mismatch on the existence and stability of nonlinear surface modes and find novel classes of two-color twisted surface solitons, which are stable in a large domain of their existence.
متن کاملSolitons in two-dimensional lattices possessing defects, dislocations, and quasicrystal structures.
Localized nonlinear modes, or solitons, are obtained for the two-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation with various external potentials that possess large variations from periodicity, i.e., vacancy defects, edge dislocations, and quasicrystal structure. The solitons are obtained by employing a spectral fixed-point computational scheme. Investigation of soliton evolution by direct numerical...
متن کاملSpatial switching of quadratic solitons in engineered quasi-phase-matched structures.
We show that a variety of quasi-phase-matched structures with engineered patterns can potentially be used for soliton control in quadratic nonlinear media. We study geometries with dislocations, tilts, and wells and predict spatial switching between different output soliton states. Experimental implementation conditions are discussed.
متن کاملTwo-dimensional Solitons in Irregular Lattice Systems
Solitons are localized nonlinear waves and occur in many branches of physics. Their properties have provided a deep and fundamental understanding of complex nonlinear systems. In recent years, there has been considerable interest in studying solitons in systems with periodic potentials or lattices, in particular, those that can be generated in nonlinear optical materials [1]–[5]. In periodic la...
