چکیده

We investigate properties of dark solitons under competing nonlocal cubic-local quintic nonlinearities. Analytical results, based on a variational approach and confirmed by direct numerical simulations, reveal the existence of a unique dark soliton solutions with their width being independent of the degree of nonlocality, due to the competing cubic-quintic nonlinearities.

Stabilization of vortex solitons by combining competing cubic-quintic nonlinearities with a finite degree of nonlocality

In contrast to an infinite degree of nonlocality, we demonstrate that vortex solitons in nonlinear media under competing self-focusing cubic and self-defocusing quintic nonlocal nonlinearities can be stabilized with a finite degree of nonlocality. Stable vortex solitons in the upper branch, bifurcated from the competing cubic-quintic nonlinearities, are found to be supported when the original d...

Stable solitons of even and odd parities supported by competing nonlocal nonlinearities.

We introduce a one-dimensional phenomenological model of a nonlocal medium featuring focusing cubic and defocusing quintic nonlocal optical nonlinearities. By means of numerical methods, we find families of solitons of two types, even-parity (fundamental) and dipole-mode (odd-parity) ones. Stability of the solitons is explored by means of computation of eigenvalues associated with modes of smal...

Cubic-quintic condensate solitons in four-wave mixing

We experimentally investigate the two-dimensional condensate (optical dropletlike) soliton formation and dynamics of the generated signal and probe beams in four-wave mixing (FWM) process with atomic coherence, under competition between the thirdand fifth-order nonlinear susceptibilities. With such competing nonlinearities, mutual transformations among dropletlike fundamental, dipole, and azimu...

Stable Higher-Charged Vortex Solitons in Optically-Induced Lattices

Vortices are fundamental objects which appear in many branches of physics [1] such as optics [2, 3] and Bose-Einstein condensates [4]. In nonlinear optics, vortex solitons are associated with the phase dislocations (or phase singularities) carried by the nondiffracting optical beams [5], and share many common properties with the vortices observed in other systems, e.g., superfluids and Bose-Ein...

Mobility of solitons in one-dimensional lattices with the cubic-quintic nonlinearity.

We investigate mobility regimes for localized modes in the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger (DNLS) equation with the cubic-quintic on-site terms. Using the variational approximation, the largest soliton's total power admitting progressive motion of kicked discrete solitons is predicted by comparing the effective kinetic energy with the respective Peierls-Nabarro (PN) potential barrier. The predic...
