Grey spatial solitons due to two-photon photorefractive effect

This paper predicts that grey spatial solitons can exist in two-photon photorefractive materials. In steady state and undcr appropriate external bias conditions, it obtains the grey spatial soliton solutions of the optical wave evolution equation. The intensity profile, phase distribution, and transverse velocity of these grey solitons are discussed.

Dark incoherent spatial solitons in logarithmically saturable nonlinear media

This paper studies numerically the dark incoherent spatial solitons propagating in logarithmically saturable nonlinear media by using a coherent density approach and a split-step Fourier approach for the first time. Under odd and even initial conditions, a soliton triplet and a doublet are obtained respectively for given parameters. Simultaneously, coherence properties associated with the soliton triplet and doublet are discussed. In addition, if the values of the parameters are properly chosen, five and four splittings from the input dark incoherent spatial solitons can also form. Lastly, the grayness of the soliton triplet and that of the doublet are studied, in detail.

Large phase shift of spatial soliton in lead glass by cross-phase modulation in pump-signal geometry

We investigate the co-propagation of a strong pump beam and a weak signal beam in lead glass, and find that the large phase shift of the strongly nonlocal spatial optical soliton （SNSOS） can be realized via cross-phase modulation. The theoretical study suggests a synchronous propagation of the pump SNSOS and the signal SNSOS under the required initial condition. A π-phase shift of the signal SNSOS is experimentally obtained by changing the power of the pump SNSOS by about 13 mW around the soliton critical power, which agrees qualitatively with our theoretical prediction. The ratio of the phase shift rate of the signal SNSOS to that of the pump SNSOS shows a close match to the reciprocal of the ratio between their wavelengths.

Effects of temperature on screening bright-dark the stability of separate spatial soliton pair

We investigate theoretically the temperature effects on the evolution and stability of a separate screening brightdark soliton pair formed in a serial non-photovoltaic photorefractive crystal circuit. Our numerical results show that, for a stable bright-dark soliton pair originally formed in a crystal circuit at given temperatures, when one crystal temperature changes, the soliton supported by the other crystal will evolve into another stable soliton if the temperature change is quite small, whereas it will become unstable and experience larger cycles of compression or break up into beam filaments if the temperature difference is big enough. The dark soliton is more sensitive to the temperature change than the bright one.

The solutions of the strongly nonlocal spatial solitons with several types of nonlocal response functions

The fundamental and second order strongly nonlocal solitons of the nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger equation for several types of nonlocal responses are calculated by Ritz＇s variational method. For a specific type of nonlocal response, the solutions of the strongly nonlocal solitons with the same beam width but different degrees of nonlocality are identical except for an amplitude factor. For a nonlocal case where the nonlocal response function decays in direct proportion to the mth power of the distance near the source point, the power and the phase constant of the strongly nonlocal soliton are in inverse proportion to the （m ＋ 2）th power of its beam width.

Self-Similar Hermite-Gaussian Spatial Solitons in Two-Dimensional Nonlocal Nonlinear Media

We study analytically and numerically the propagation of spatial solitons in a two-dimensional stronglynonlocal nonlinear medium. Exact analytical solutions in the form of self-similar spatial solitons are obtained involvinghigher-order Hermite-Gaussian functions. Our theoretical predictions provide new insights into the low-energy spatialsoliton transmission with high fidelity.

Evolution and stability of spatial solitons in a photorefractive two-wave mixing system

The dynamical evolution and stability of bright dissipative holographic solitons in biased photorefractive materials in which the self-trapping beam obtains a gain from the pump beam via two-wave mixing has been investigated numerically. Results show that these solitons are stable relative to small perturbations. Adjusting some system parameters, such as the bias field and the angle between beams, can easily control the generation of such solitons. Potential applications in optical switches or repeaters are discussed.

We study the propagation of （l＋l）-dimensional spatial soliton in a nonlocal Kerr-type medium with weak non- locality. First, we show that an equation for describing the soliton propagation in weak nonlocality is a nonlinear Schr6dinger equation with perturbation terms. Then, an approximate analytical solution of the equation is found by the perturbation method. We also find some interesting properties of the intensity profiles of the soliton.

We also analyze the influence of phase-mismatch on the stability of dark soliton propagation.

Collisions of Two Spatial Solitons in Inhomogeneous Nonlinear Media

Collisions of spatial solitons occurring in the nonlinear Schringer equation with harmonic potential arestudied,using conservation laws and the split-step Fourier method.We find an analytical solution for the separationdistance between the spatial solitons in an inhomogeneous nonlinear medium when the light beam is self-trapped inthe transverse dimension.In the self-focusing nonlinear media the spatial solitons can be transmitted stably,and theinteraction between spatial solitons is enhanced due to the linear focusing effect (and also diminished for the lineardefocusing effect).In the seff-defocusing nonlinear media,in the absence of seff-trapping or in the presence of linearself-defocusing,no transmission of stable spatial solitons is possible.However,in such media the linear focusing effectcan be exactly compensated,and the spatial solitons can propagate through.

Spatial soliton by cascading x^((2)) effect and its self-induced wave-guide in quasi-phase-matched media

The formation of the spatial solitons in the quadratic nonlinearity x(2) media by cascading second harmonic generation (SHG) in quasi-phase-matched (QPM) sample is studied on the basis of nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLSE). When the solitary wave propagates in the QPM media, it formed optical wave-guides through cascading x(2) effect called self-induced soliton wave-guide. Transverse refractive index distribution of the self-induced soliton wave-guide of fundamental and SHG wave is obtained by cascading process. Analysis of guided-mode of such self-induced soliton wave-guide is first proposed to our knowledge. Because the power needed for forming the spatial solitons in cascading process is much lower than that in Kerr media, this kind of self-induced soliton wave-guide shows potential applications in all-optical signal process.

Propagation of local spatial solitons in power-law nonlinear PT-symmetric potentials based on finite difference

We consider the(2+1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equation with power-law nonlinearity under the parity-time-symmetry potential by using the Crank-Nicolson alternating direction implicit difference scheme,which can also be used to solve general boundary problems under the premise of ensuring accuracy.We use linear Fourier analysis to verify the unconditional stability of the scheme.To demonstrate the effectiveness of the scheme,we compare the numerical results with the exact soliton solutions.Moreover,by using the scheme,we test the stability of the solitons under the small environmental disturbances.

Spatial weak-light ring soliton in self-assembled quantum dots

By using semiclassical theory combined with multiple-scale method, we analytically study the linear absorption and the nonlinear dynamical properties in a lifetime broadened Λ-type three-level self-assembled quantum dots. It is found that this system can exhibit the transparency, and the width of the transparency window becomes wider with the increase of control light field. Interestingly, a weak probe light beam can form spatial weak-light dark solitons. When it propagates along the axial direction, the soliton will transform into a steady spatial weak-light ring dark soltion. In addition, the stability of two-dimensional spatial optical solitons is testified numerically.

Waveguides Induced by Screening-Photovoltaic Solitons in Biased Photorefractive-Photovoltaic Crystals

We investigate theoretically waveguides induced by screening-photovoltaic solitons in biased photorefractive-photovoltaic crystals. We show that the number of guided modes in a waveguide induced by a bright screening photovoltaic soliton increases monotonically with the increasing intensity ratio of the soliton, which is the ratio between the peak intensity of the soliton and the dark irradiance. On the other hand, waveguides induced by dark screening-photovoltaic solitons are always single mode for all intensity ratios and the confined energy near the centre of a dark screening-photovoltaic soliton increases monotonically with the increasing intensity ratio. When the bulk photovoltaic effect is neglectable, these waveguides are those induced by screening solitons. When the external field is absent, these waveguides predict those induced by photovoltaic solitons.
