Multi-soliton energy transport in anharmonic lattices

چکیده
We demonstrate the existence of dynamically stable multihump solitary waves in polaron-type models describing interaction of envelope and lattice excitations. In comparison with the earlier theory of multihump optical solitons (see Phys. Rev. Lett. 83 (1999) 296), our analysis reveals a novel physical mechanism for the formation of stable multihump solitary waves in nonintegrable multi-component nonlinear models. 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

Supersonic Discrete Kink-Solitons and Sinusoidal Patterns with “Magic” Wavenumber in Anharmonic Lattices
– The sharp pulse method is applied to Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) and LennardJones (LJ) anharmonic lattices. Numerical simulations reveal the presence of high energy strongly localized “discrete” kink-solitons (DK), which move with supersonic velocities that are proportional to kink amplitudes. For small amplitudes, the DK’s of the FPU lattice reduce to the well-known “continuous” kink-soliton solu...
متن کاملSoliton-Mediated Electron Transfer and Electric Transport Arising from Coupling Electron Quantum Mechanics to Nonlinear Elasticity in Anharmonic Crystal Lattices
After recalling features of solitons in the Toda (more precisely an adapted Morse-Toda) lattice a succint discussion is provided about the stability of such solitons when the lattice is heated up to physiological temperatures for values of parameters typical of bio-macro-molecules. Then the discussion is focused on the soliton trapping of an added excess (originally free) electron thus creating...
متن کاملUltrasonic Kink-Solitons in Fermi-Pasta-Ulam Chains
– We use the sharp pulse method to perform numerical experiments aimed at exciting moving high energy strongly localized kink-solitons in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam chain of anharmonic oscillators. An approximate analytical expression of the kink-soliton is derived. This is compatible with the fact that these objects move with ultrasonic velocities, proportional to stiffness. For low excitation energ...
متن کاملMulti-component structure of nonlinear excitations in systems with length-scale competition
We investigate the properties of nonlinear excitations in different types of soliton bearing systems with long-range dispersive interaction. We show that length-scale competition in such systems universally results in a multi-component structure of nonlinear excitations and can lead to a new type of multistability: coexistence of different nonlinear excitations at the same value of the spectral...
متن کاملSolitons in inharmonic lattices: Application to achiral carbon nanotubes
In this paper we demonstrate that soliton solutions, whose existence is well known in one-dimensional (1D) model anharmonic systems, can also exist in more complex systems such as carbon nanotubes (CNT). We investigate armchair and zigzag nanotubes and show that both can be simplified to anharmonic 1D lattice models with reduced internal degrees of freedom. Because of the differences in chirali...
