Surface lattice kink solitons
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We predict theoretically that surface of an optical lattice imprinted in defocusing nonlinear media can support shock, or kink waves. Such new surface waves contain a modulationall…
Vector soliton fission by reflection at nonlinear interfaces
Fangwei Ye, Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Lluis Torner
We address the reflection of vector solitons, comprising several components that exhibit multiple field oscillations, at the interface between two nonlinear media. We reveal that r…
Matter-wave soliton control in optical lattices with topological dislocations
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Lluis Torner
We address the concept of guiding and transporting matter-wave solitons along the channels of optical lattices made by interference patterns of beams containing topological wavefro…
Two-dimensional multi-pole solitons in nonlocal nonlinear media
Carmel Rotschild, Zhiyong Xu, Oren Cohen +3
We present the experimental observation of scalar multi-pole solitons in highly nonlocal nonlinear media, including dipole-, tri-pole, quadru-pole, and necklace-type solitons, orga…
Lattice-supported surface solitons in nonlocal nonlinear media
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We reveal that lattice interfaces imprinted in nonlocal nonlinear media support surface solitons that do not exist in other similar settings, including interfaces of local and nonl…
Vector mixed-gap surface solitons
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Fangwei Ye, Lluis Torner
We elucidate the properties of mixed-gap vector surface solitons supported by the interface between a uniform medium and an optical lattice imprinted in a Kerr-type nonlinear media…
Generation of surface soliton arrays
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Dumitru Mihalache +1
We discover that at the edge of optical lattice imprinted in saturable nonlinear media one-dimensional surface solitons exist only within a band of light intensities, and that they…
Soliton control in fading optical lattices
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We predict new phenomena, such as soliton steering and soliton fission, in optical lattices that fade away exponentially along the propagation direction. Such lattices, featuring t…
Multipole-mode surface solitons
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Lluis Torner
We discover multipole-mode solitons supported by the surface between two distinct periodic lattices imprinted in Kerr-type nonlinear media. Such solitons are possible because the r…
Surface waves at the interface between left-handed and birefringent materials
Lucian-Cornel Crasovan, Osamu Takayama, David Artigas +3
We theoretically investigate the existence and properties of hybrid surface waves forming at interfaces between left-handed materials and dielectric birefringent media. The existen…
Multipole vector solitons in nonlocal nonlinear media
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, D. Mihalache +1
We show that multipole solitons can be made stable via vectorial coupling in bulk nonlocal nonlinear media. Such vector solitons are composed of mutually incoherent nodeless and mu…
Bragg-type soliton mirror
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Victor A. Vysloukh, Lluis Torner
We study soliton reflection/transmission at the interface between uniform medium and the optical lattice with focusing Kerr nonlinearity. We reveal that such interfaces afford rich…
Surface vortex solitons
Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Alexey A. Egorov, Victor A. Vysloukh +1
We discover the existence of vortex solitons supported by the surface between two optical lattices imprinted in Kerr-type nonlinear media. Such solitons can feature strongly noncan…
