چکیده
We present, experimentally and theoretically, a polymer material system that supports optical spatial solitons of circular polarization. We demonstrate one-dimensional circularly polarized dark solitons supported by photoisomerization nonlinearity in a bulk polymer.

Effects of spin-dependent interactions on polarization of bright polariton solitons.
We report on the spin properties of bright polariton solitons supported by an external pump to compensate losses. We observe robust circularly polarized solitons when a circularly polarized pump is applied, a result attributed to phase synchronization between nondegenerate TE and TM polarized polariton modes at high momenta. For the case of a linearly polarized pump, either σ+ or σ- circularly ...
متن کاملPerfect optical solitons: spatial Kerr solitons as exact solutions of Maxwell’s equations
We prove that spatial Kerr solitons, usually obtained in the frame of a nonlinear Schrödinger equation valid in the paraxial approximation, can be found in a generalized form as exact solutions of Maxwell’s equations. In particular, they are shown to exist, both in the bright and dark version, as TM, linearly polarized, exactly integrable one-dimensional solitons and to reduce to the standard p...
متن کاملDynamical model of coherent circularly polarized optical pulse interactions with two-level quantum systems
We propose and develop a method for theoretical description of circularly elliptically polarized optical pulse resonant coherent interactions with two-level atoms. The method is based on the time-evolution equations of a two-level quantum system in the presence of a time-dependent dipole perturbation for electric dipole transitions between states with total angular-momentum projection differenc...
متن کاملVariational Approach to Orthogonally-polarized Optical Soliton Interaction with Cubic and Quintic Nonlinearities
A reduced variational technique is developed to describe the interaction of opposite-handed, circularly-polarized, d-dimensional solitons propagating in an isotropic material with both cubic and quintic nonlinearities. Dynamical equations for the simultaneous collapse and interaction of the two solitons are developed and are shown to be analogous to a particle in a (d] 2)-dimensional potential ...
متن کاملCircularly Polarized Circular Slot Antenna Array Using Sequentially Rotated Feed Network
This paper presents the design, simulation, and measurement of two low-cost broadband circularly polarized (CP) printed antennas: a single element and an array at C band. The proposed single element antenna is excited by an L-shaped strip with a tapered end, located along the circular-slot diagonal line in the back plane. From the array experimental results, the 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth can r...
