Dipole-mode vector solitons in anisotropic nonlocal self-focusing media.

چکیده
We demonstrate, theoretically and experimentally, that dipole-mode vector solitons created in biased photorefractive media possess a number of anisotropy-driven properties, such as stability of a selected orientation, wobbling, and incomplete rotation, owing to the anisotropic nonlocal response of the photorefractive non-linearity. Such features are found for higher-order (multipole) vector solitons, and they are carefully verified in an experiment.

Solitary attractors and low-order filamentation in anisotropic self-focusing media
We present a detailed theoretical analysis of the properties and formation of single solitons and higher-order bound dipole pairs in media with anisotropic nonlocal photorefractive material response. The single solitons are elliptical beams, whereas the dipole pairs are formed by a pair of displaced elliptical beams with a p phase shift between their fields. The theory predicts convergence of G...
متن کاملSelf-trapping of two-dimensional vector dipole solitons in nonlocal media
We study the self-trapping of the superposition of two-dimensional vector dipole solitons in nonlocal media with an arbitrary degree of nonlocality. We apply the variational approach to find the exact solution of such vector dipole solitons and investigate their stability by using directly numerical simulations. The dynamics of such vector solitons are also compared with a scalar vortex. We sho...
متن کاملSoliton transverse instabilities in anisotropic nonlocal self-focusing media.
We study, both numerically and experimentally, the transverse modulational instability of spatial stripe solitons in anisotropic nonlocal photorefractive media. We demonstrate that the instability scenarios depend strongly on the stripe orientation, but the anisotropy-induced features are largely suppressed for spatial solitons created by self-trapping of partially incoherent light.
متن کاملIncoherent vector vortex-mode solitons in self-focusing nonlinear media.
We suggest a novel type of composite spatial optical soliton created by a coherent vortex beam guiding a partially incoherent light beam in a self-focusing nonlinear medium. We show that the incoherence of the guided mode may enhance, rather than suppress, the vortex azimuthal instability, and we also demonstrate strong destabilization of dipole-mode solitons by partially incoherent light.
متن کاملBound dipole solitary solutions in anisotropic nonlocal self-focusing media
We find and analyze bound dipole solitary solutions in media with anisotropic nonlocal photorefractive material response. The dipole solutions consist of two elliptically shaped Gaussian-type beams separated by several diameters, and with a p phase shift between their fields. Spatial evolution of two initially round Gaussian beams and their convergence to the above dipole solution is demonstrat...
