Effect of a fluctuating phase mismatch on spatial solitons in quadratic media.

چکیده
We investigate the evolution of self-guided beams in a chi((2)) medium with a fluctuating phase mismatch between the fundamental wave and its second harmonic, as may occur in particular when the quasi-phase-matching technique is applied. We show that the fluctuations reduce the phase correlation and act as an effective loss to solitary waves.

3 Spatial optical solitons supported by mutual focusing
We study composite spatial optical solitons supported by two-wave mutual focusing induced by cross-phase modulation in Kerr-like nonlinear media. We find the families of both singleand two-hump solitons and discuss their properties and stability. We also reveal remarkable similarities between recently predicted holographic solitons in photorefractive media and parametric solitons in quadratic n...
متن کاملGuided quadratic spatial solitons in semiconductor crystals
The possibility to exploit the relatively high second order nonlinear coefficient available in III-V semiconductors is analyzed in the paper. It is shown that in bulk material too high phase mismatch makes technologically impossible to employ these semiconductors because of a necessary prohibitive threshold power. To bypass this problem, the use of a planar waveguide is proposed. It is shown th...
متن کاملTwo-color surface lattice solitons.
We study the properties of surface solitons generated at the edge of a semi-infinite photonic lattice in nonlinear quadratic media, namely two-color surface lattice solitons. We analyze the impact of phase mismatch on the existence and stability of nonlinear surface modes and find novel classes of two-color twisted surface solitons, which are stable in a large domain of their existence.

Self-action of light is a subject of constant investigation due to the fascinating phenomena encountered and their potential applications to all-optical signal processing devices. Optical solitons, both temporal and spatial, play a central role in such scenario because of their unique particlelike properties. Here we study the spatial case. Until recently, optical solitons and their application...

In this paper we numerically investigate the effect of relative phase on thestability of temporal bright solitons in a Nano PT- Symmetric nonlinear directionalcoupler (NLDC) by considering gain in bar and loss in cross. We also study the effect ofrelative phase on the output perturbed bright solitons energies, in the range of 0 to 180 . By using perturbation theory three eigenfunctions an...
