چکیده

We study the properties of junctions created by the crossing of N identical branches of linear discrete networks. We reveal that for N>2 such a junction creates a topological defect and supports two types of spatially localized modes. We analyze the wave scattering by the junction defect and demonstrate nonzero reflection for any set of parameters. If the junction is nonlinear, it is possible to achieve the maximum transmission for any frequency by tuning the intensity of the scattering wave. In addition, near the maximum transmission the system shows the bistable behavior.

Discrete dissipative localized modes in nonlinear magnetic metamaterials.

We analyze the existence, stability, and propagation of dissipative discrete localized modes in one- and two-dimensional nonlinear lattices composed of weakly coupled split-ring resonators (SRRs) excited by an external electromagnetic field. We employ the near-field interaction approach for describing quasi-static electric and magnetic interaction between the resonators, and demonstrate the cru...

Two-color discrete localized modes and resonant scattering in arrays of nonlinear quadratic optical waveguides.

We analyze the properties and stability of two-color discrete localized modes in arrays of channel waveguides where tunable quadratic nonlinearity is introduced as a nonlinear defect by periodic poling of a single waveguide in the array. We show that, depending on the value of the phase mismatch and the input power, such two-color defect modes can be realized in three different localized states...

We report a theoretical analysis of intrinsic localized modes in a quasi-one-dimensional charge-transfer-solid [P t(en) 2 ][P t(en) 2 Cl 2 ](ClO 4) 4 (PtCl). We discuss strongly nonlinear features of resonant Raman overtone scattering measurements on PtCl, arising from quantum intrinsic localized (multi-phonon) modes (ILMs) and ILM-plus-phonon states. We show, that Ra-man scattering data displa...

Existence and Stability of Standing Pulses in Neural Networks: II. Stability

We analyze the stability of standing pulse solutions of a neural network integro-differential equation. The network consists of a coarse-grained layer of neurons synaptically connected by lateral inhibition with a nonsaturating nonlinear gain function. When two standing single-pulse solutions coexist, the small pulse is unstable, and the large pulse is stable. The large single pulse is bistable...

Analysis of Nonlinear Cylindrical Waveguide Taper Using Modal Matching Technique

Nonlinear tapered waveguide sections are often needed in the microwave/millimeter-wave system to connect the two waveguides of different radii. The presence of such a taper inevitably introduces unwanted parasitic modes and reflections. The modal matching technique is a powerful computer friendly method for analyzing horn antennas or nonlinear waveguides in which the actual profile is replaced ...
