Observation of two-dimensional defect surface solitons
A. Szameit, Y. V. Kartashov, M. Heinrich +7
We report on the experimental observation of two-dimensional solitons located in a defect channel at the surface of a hexagonal waveguide array. The threshold power for the excitat…
Angular surface solitons in sectorial hexagonal arrays
A. Szameit, Y. V. Kartashov, V. A. Vysloukh +7
We report on the experimental observation of corner surface solitons localized at the edges joining planar interfaces of hexagonal waveguide array with uniform nonlinear medium. Th…
Observation of surface solitons in chirped waveguide arrays
A. Szameit, Yaroslav V. Kartashov, F. Dreisow +6
We report the observation of surface solitons in chirped semi-infinite waveguide arrays whose waveguides exhibit exponentially decreasing refractive indices. We show that the power…
Observation of two-dimensional lattice interface solitons
A. Szameit, Y. V. Kartashov, F. Dreisow +7
We report on the experimental observation of two-dimensional solitons at the interface between square and hexagonal waveguide arrays. In addition to the different symmetry of the l…
Optical coupling of fundamental whispering gallery modes in bi-spheres
L. I. Deych, C. Schmidt, A. Chipouline +2
What will happen if two identical microspheres, with fundamental whispering gallery modes excited in each of them, become optically coupled? Conventional wisdom based on coupled-mo…
Optical characterization of ultra-high diffraction efficiency gratings
A. Bunkowski, O. Burmeister, T. Clausnitzer +4
We report on the optical characterization of an ultra-high diffraction efficiency grating in 1st order Littrow configuration. The apparatus used was an optical cavity built from th…
