Soliton switching and Bloch-wave filtering in periodic photonic lattices
Andrey A. Sukhorukov, Yuri S. Kivshar
We suggest a novel concept in the soliton switching based on the Bloch-wave filtering in periodic photonic structures. Taking a binary waveguide array as an example, we demonstrate…
Coherence controlled soliton interactions
Ting-Sen Ku, Ming-Feng Shih, Andrey A. Sukhorukov +1
We demonstrate theoretically and subsequently observe in experiment a novel type of soliton interaction when a pair of closely spaced spatial optical solitons as a whole is made pa…
Bifurcations and stability of gap solitons in periodic potentials
Dmitry E. Pelinovsky, Andrey A. Sukhorukov, Yuri S. Kivshar
We analyze the existence, stability, and internal modes of gap solitons in nonlinear periodic systems described by the nonlinear Schrodinger equation with a sinusoidal potential, s…
Observation of discrete gap solitons in binary waveguide arrays
Roberto Morandotti, Daniel Mandelik, Yaron Silberberg +5
We report on the first experimental observation of discrete gap solitons in binary arrays of optical waveguides. We observe the soliton generation when the inclination angle of an…
Asymmetric vortex solitons in nonlinear periodic lattices
Tristram J. Alexander, Andrey A. Sukhorukov, Yuri S. Kivshar
We reveal the existence of asymmetric vortex solitons in ideally symmetric periodic lattices, and show how such nonlinear localized structures describing elementary circular flows…
