Band-gap solitons in nonlinear optically-induced lattices
arXiv:nlin/0304008 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.91.153902
Abstract
We introduce novel optical solitons that consist of a periodic and a spatially localized components coupled nonlinearly via cross-phase modulation. The spatially localized optical field can be treated as a gap soliton supported by the optically-induced nonlinear grating. We find different types of these band-gap composite solitons and demonstrate their dynamical stability.
