Nature of Optical Thermodynamic Pressure Exerted in Highly Multimoded Nonlinear Systems
Huizhong Ren, Georgios G. Pyrialakos, Fan O. Wu +4
The theory of optical thermodynamics provides a comprehensive framework that enables a self-consistent description of the intricate dynamics of nonlinear multimoded photonic system…
Complex Skin Modes in Non-Hermitian Coupled Laser Arrays
Yuzhou G. N. Liu, Yunxuan Wei, Omid Hemmatyar +4
From biological ecosystems to spin glasses, connectivity plays a crucial role in determining the function, dynamics, and resiliency of a network. In the realm of non-Hermitian phys…
Gain Induced Topological Response via Tailored Long-range Interactions
Yuzhou G. N. Liu, Pawel S. Jung, Midya Parto +2
The ability to tailor the hopping interactions between the constituent elements of a physical system could enable the observation of unusual phenomena that are otherwise inaccessib…
Formation and stability of vortex solitons in nematic liquid crystals
Pawel S. Jung, Yana V. Izdebskaya, Vladlen G. Shvedov +2
We study the propagation dynamics of bright optical vortex solitons in nematic liquid crystals with a nonlocal reorientational nonlinear response. We investigate the role of optica…
Optical Thouless pumping transport and nonlinear switching in a topological low-dimensional discrete nematic liquid crystal array
Pawel S. Jung, Midya Parto, Georgios G. Pyrialakos +6
We theoretically investigate a Thouless pumping scheme in the 1D topological Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model for single and multiple band-gaps systems when implemented in a discre…
Thermalization of light's orbital angular momentum in nonlinear multimode waveguide systems
Fan O. Wu, Qi Zhong, Huizhong Ren +3
We show that the orbital angular momentum (OAM) of a light field can be thermalized in a nonlinear cylindrical multimode optical waveguide. We find, that upon thermal equilibrium,…
Engineering Interaction Dynamics in Active Resonant Photonic Structures
Yuzhou G. N. Liu, Omid Hemmatyar, Absar U. Hassan +4
The collective response of a system is profoundly shaped by the interaction dynamics between its constituent elements. In physics, tailoring these interactions can enable the obser…
Entropic thermodynamics of nonlinear photonic chain networks
Fan O. Wu, Pawel S. Jung, Midya Parto +2
The complex nonlinear behaviors of heavily multimode lightwave structures have been recently the focus of considerable attention. Here we develop an optical thermodynamic approach…
Thermodynamic conditions governing the optical temperature and chemical potential in nonlinear highly multimoded photonic systems
Midya Parto, Fan O. Wu, Pawel S. Jung +2
We show that, in general, any complex weakly nonlinear highly multimode system can reach thermodynamic equilibrium that is characterized by a unique temperature and chemical potent…
2D Solitons in PT-symmetric photonic lattices
André L. M. Muniz, Martin Wimmer, Arstan Bisianov +4
Parity-time (PT) symmetry has attracted a lot of attention since the concept of pseudo-Hermitian dynamics of open quantum systems was first demonstrated two decades ago. Contrary t…
Super-mode spatial optical solitons in liquid crystals with competing nonlinearities
Pawel Jung, Wieslaw Krolikowski, Urszula A. Laudyn +2
We study numerically formation of spatial optical solitons in nematic liquid crystals with competing nonlocal nonlinearities. We demonstrate that at the sufficiently high input pow…
