We present experimental results on one-dimensional (1-D) spatial solitons in AlGaAs waveguides. Three distinct types of spatial solitons have been observed: namely the fundamental soliton, the Manakov soliton, and the vector soliton. The fundamental soliton is the simplest form of 1-D soliton which consists of a single polarization. The properties of waveguiding and ‘robustness’ are experimentally studied. Vector solitons which result from the complex interplay between the two orthogonally polarized beams due to self-phase modulation, cross-phase modulation, and four-wave mixing effects are studied. The complex beam dynamics and polarization behaviour of the vector solitons are experimentally studied. Manakov solitons which are a special case of the vector soliton exist when the ratio between the self-to-cross-phase modulation is one and the four-wave mixing effects becomes zero are demonstrated experimentally and the basic properties discussed. Finally, some soliton interactions such as trapping and dragging are reported and possible applications of soliton interactions are discussed. 相似文献

We present recent experimental results on the control and dynamics
of cavity solitons in a monolithic, vertical cavity surface emitting
laser with saturable absorber. On one hand, the fast and independent
manipulation of two laser cavity solitons is achieved and a flip-flop
operation is demonstrated with a single control-beam. On the other
hand, a pulsing localized structure is presented and we demonstrate
the control of a pulsing multispot structure that we can switch-on
and off. These results are promising in view of the obtainment of
a pulsed and monolithic cavity soliton laser. 相似文献

The analytical form of the one-soliton solutions to the Maxwell–Bloch equations is found without the slowly-varying envelope approximation with application to the ultra-short (few-cycle or sub-cycle) light pulses propagating in media of two-level atoms as well as to fluxons in the long Josephson junctions. Also, we discuss the dynamics of the ultra-short vector solitons propagating in specific three-level media and magnetic-flux transmission lines (of two long Josephson junctions sharing a common superconducting plate). Studies of the (ultra-short) pulse collisions lead to the prediction of pulse stability against the collisions. In particular, the collisions of the ultra-short vector solitons are investigated in detail. Their collision-induced polarization transform is found to be similar to the polarization transform of the vector (Manakov) solitons propagating in self-focusing media. 相似文献

We study (2+1) -dimensional multicomponent spatial vector solitons with a nontrivial topological structure of their constituents and demonstrate that these solitary waves exhibit a symmetry-breaking instability, provided their total topological charge is nonzero. We describe a novel type of stable multicomponent dipole-mode solitons with intriguing swinging dynamics. 相似文献

Coupled modified nonlinear Schr?dinger (CMNLS) equations
describe the pulse propagation in the picosecond or femtosecond
regime of the birefringent optical fibers. A new type of the Lax
pair and another hierarchy of the infinitely many conservation laws
are derived based on the Wadati-Konno-Ichikawa system. By means of
the Hirota method, soliton solutions in the normal dispersion regime
are obtained. Parametric regions for the existence of dark and
anti-dark vector soliton solutions are given. Asymptotic analysis
shows that the collision between two solitons (two anti-dark
solitons, two dark solitons, or dark and anti-dark solitons) in each
polarization direction is elastic. Moreover, there is no energy
transfer between two polarization components of each vector soliton,
whether dark or anti-dark vector soliton. In addition, dark and
anti-dark solitons can coexist on the same background seen from the
collision between the dark and anti-dark solitons in one
polarization direction. Our graphical analysis shows that the
parameters in the CMNLS equations not only determine the regions for
the existence of dark and anti-dark soliton solutions but also
control the phase and direction of the propagation of the solitons.
Finally, through the linear stability analysis, the modulational
instability condition is given. 相似文献

We investigate the formation of high-order polarization vortex spatial solitons. The high-order polarization vortex solitons have novel polarization states which are different from fundamental polarization vortex solitons and have rotational symmetry only in intensity. It is proved that the polarization vortex solitons cannot carry vortex phase. The existence domain and dynamical characteristic of these high-order polarization vortex solitons in Bessel optical lattices are discussed in detail. 相似文献

We show that gray spatial optical solitons are possible in biased photorefractive polymers under steady-state conditions. We find that for a given material parameter the absolute value of a gray photorefractive polymeric soliton's phase decreases with an increase in the beam's grayness, whereas it increases with the material parameter for a given beam's grayness and that the full width half maximum (FWHM) of the gray soliton beam's intensity increases with the beam's grayness when the normalized background intensity and the material parameter are fixed and decreases with an increase in the normalized background intensity when the material parameter is fixed. On the other hand, we also show that N coupled beam evolution equations in biased photorefractive polymers can exhibit multicomponent gray solitons. These multicomponent gray solitons can be obtained provided that the N coupled beams share the same polarization, wavelength, and are incoherent with one another. The characteristics and stability properties of these multicomponent gray solitons are also discussed in detail. 相似文献

Feshbach resonance management of vector solitons in two-component Bose—Einstein condensates 下载免费PDF全文
We consider two coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations describing a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate with time-dependent atomic interactions loaded in an external harmonic potential,and investigate the dynamics of vector solitons.By using a direct method,we construct a novel family of vector soliton solutions,which are the linear combination between dark and bright solitons in each component.Our results show that due to the superposition between dark and bright solitons,such vector solitons possess many novel and interesting properties.The dynamics of vector solitons can be controlled by the Feshbach resonance technique,and the vector solitons can keep the dynamic stability against the variation of the scattering length. 相似文献

We experimentally observe polarization-locked vector solitons in optical fiber. Polarization locked-vector solitons use nonlinearity to preserve their polarization state despite the presence of birefringence. To achieve conditions where the delicate balance between nonlinearity and birefringence can survive, we studied the polarization evolution of the pulses circulating in a laser constructed entirely of optical fiber. We observe two distinct states with fixed polarization. This first state occurs for very small values birefringence and is elliptically polarized. We measure the relative phase between orthogonal components along the two principal axes to be +/-pi/2. The relative amplitude varies linearly with the magnitude of the birefringence. This state is a polarization locked vector soliton. The second, linearly polarized, state occurs for larger values of birefringence. The second state is due to the fast axis instability. We provide complete characterization of these states, and present a physical explanation of both of these states and the stability of the polarization locked vector solitons.

Motionless dissipative vector solitons are found numerically in a birefringent polarization-conserving optical fiber with a longitudinal Bragg grating and nonlinear amplification and absorption in the polarization capture regime. It is shown that dissipative vector Bragg solitons exist and are stable even if the birefringence is comparatively strong. 相似文献

We investigate the formation of polarization vortex spatial optical solitons in optical lattice induced by a non-diffracting Bessel beam. The properties of these solitons in zeroth-order and first-order Bessel lattices with focusing and defocusing Kerr nonlinearity are discussed. It is found that these solitons have some analogies with phase vortex solitons carrying single positive or negative topological charge in these lattices. Besides, these polarization vortex solitons have complicated dynamical characteristic and can be stabilized in some parameter region. 相似文献

The polarization structure of nonparaxial spatial solitons in a transparent medium with the electronic mechanism of Kerr nonlinearity is studied theoretically. It is demonstrated analytically in the weak nonparaxiality approximation that the regime of polarization locking, in which all the field components have the same propagation constant, is the only stable regime. Estimates of the rate of transition of the initial metastable regime of rotation of the polarization ellipse to the regime of polarization locking are presented. Based on a numerical solution of the nonlinear Maxwell equations, the presence of the nonparaxial regime of polarization locking is confirmed and the main characteristics of the corresponding spatial solitons are obtained. 相似文献

Vector soliton operation of erbium-doped fiber lasers mode locked with atomic layer graphene was experimentally investigated. Either the polarization rotation or polarization locked vector dissipative solitons were experimentally obtained in a dispersion-managed cavity fiber laser with large net cavity dispersion, while in the anomalous dispersion cavity fiber laser, the phase locked nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) solitons and induced NLSE soliton were experimentally observed. The vector soliton operation of the fiber lasers unambiguously confirms the polarization insensitive saturable absorption of the atomic layer graphene when the light is incident perpendicular to its 2-dimentional (2D) atomic layer. 相似文献

The property of matter-wave vector solitons in a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate with spin-orbit and Zeeman couplings is investigated by multiscale perturbation method. The excitation spectrum and the corresponding state vectors of the system are obtained analytically, and they can be adjusted by the parameters of the system. The bright and dark vector solitons are formulated by reducing the three-component coupled Gross-Pitaeviskii equations to a standard nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which has the solutions of the bright and dark solitons with positive or negative mass depending on the product of the effective dispersive and nonlinear coefficients. The moving vector solitons are demonstrated by adjusting specific momentum near the energy minimum. Finally, the magnetized features of the vector solitons are discussed by the spin polarization of the system. 相似文献

Novel effects resulting from joint action of chirality and non-linearity are discussed using a basic equation describing the
temporal evolution of fields in a chiral medium with Kerr non-linearity. The spatial chirality effect is characterized through
the Born-Fedorov formalism. Our simulations are based on the split-step Fourier method and the solution of the Stokes parameters.
The numerical results show the chiral effect on solitons with circular polarization and mixed polarization spatial solitons. 相似文献

We introduce the concept of multipole spatial optical vector solitons associated with higher-order guided modes trapped by a soliton-induced waveguide in a bulk medium. Such stationary localized waves include previously predicted vortex- and dipole-mode vector solitons and also describe new higher-order vector solitons and necklace-type beams. We present the theoretical and experimental results of the structure, formation, and instability development of the quadrupole vector solitons. 相似文献

We carry out a theoretical investigation of the properties of waveguides induced by photorefractive one-dimensional steady-state gray spatial solitons (i.e., screening solitons, photovoltaic solitons, and screening-photovoltaic solitons). We demonstrate that waveguides induced by photorefractive steady-state gray spatial solitons are only a single guided mode for both all soliton graynesses and all values of ρ, where ρ is the ratio between the soliton peak intensity and the dark irradiance, and moreover, waveguides induced by gray photovoltaic solitons for closed-circuit condition are also only a single guided mode for all electric current densities. We find that the confined energy near the center of a photorefractive steady-state gray spatial soliton increases with ρ and decreases with an increase in the soliton grayness. We also find that the confined energy near the center of a gray photovoltaic soliton for closed-circuit condition increases with the electric current density. On the other hand, waveguides induced by gray screening-photovoltaic solitons are gray screening soliton-induced waveguides when the bulk photovoltaic effect is neglectable and are gray photovoltaic soliton-induced waveguides when the external bias field is absent. 相似文献
