部分空间非相干暗光伏孤子诱导一维波导研究

在光折变晶体LiNbO3∶Fe中观察到部分空间非相干光形成的一维暗光伏孤子,并由此暗光伏孤子在该晶体中诱导出一维波导.暗光伏孤子是由光折变晶体的强光伏效应产生,是晶体自散焦效应和衍射效应相平衡的结果;此外,光伏孤子的形成还依赖于光束的传播方向和晶体光轴与强度梯度的相对方向.在一维情况下,非相干光孤子诱导出单一的平面波导,能够对弱光敏的强光进行导光.实验证明了用低能量非相干光束控制转换高能量相干光束的可能性.

非相干耦合热电光伏光折变空间孤子对(英文)

基于无偏压光伏光折变晶体,理论研究了热电效应和光伏效应共同作用下的稳态空间孤子对.从非相干耦合波方程出发,推导了热电光伏孤子对的数值解;采用有限差分方法,数值模拟了各类孤子对的强度包络.结果表明:在自散焦光伏光折变晶体中,当正的热电场远大于光伏场时,亮-亮孤子对可以存在;当暗-暗或者灰-灰孤子对存在时,负的热电场可以增强自散焦效应,进而减小孤子的半峰全宽.各类孤子对的半峰全宽可以通过改变热电场的大小而加以操控.此外,非相干耦合热电光伏孤子对可以在一定条件下分别退化成热电孤子对或者光伏孤子对.借助晶体的热电效应,可以使光折变晶体LiNbO3从自散焦转变成自聚焦,从而灵活控制晶体中孤子对的特性.

背景光光伏效应对屏蔽-光伏空间孤子的影响

在光伏晶体两端外加一恒定的直流偏压，背景光的光伏效应对形成屏蔽-光伏孤子的空间电荷场没有影响，但对晶体中的电流有影响.如果外电源的电动势是恒定的，则背景光的光伏效应与外电路的电阻协同起作用，可以通过晶体两端的电压降影响晶体中的空间电荷场，进而影响空间孤子的宽度.在一定的条件下甚至可以实现亮、暗孤子的转换. 关键词： 屏蔽-光伏 空间孤子 孤子宽度 亮暗孤子转换     

Numerical simulation of attraction of partially spatially incoherent dark solitons

We investigate numerically the interactions of partially spatially incoherent odd dark solitons in a de-focusing kerr nonlinear media based on the coherent density approach, and find that a pair of partially spatially incoherent dark solitons may be changed from repulsion to attraction with an appropriate incoherence parameter. Moreover, a pair of partially incoherent gray soliton may form under appropriate conditions. Some numerical examples are provided to illustrate their interaction behavior further.     

Modulation instability of bright photovoltaic solitons on a partially incoherent background

We present the observation of incoherent anti-dark photovoltaic solitons in LiNbO₃:Fe crystal. This new class of soliton states involves bright photovoltaic solitons on a background beam meeting ?? > 1, where ?? is the ratio of background illumination photovoltaic constant to that of soliton beam. For ?? < 1, dark photovoltaic solitons are generated. Furthermore, this novel type solitons are investigated experimentally by injecting coherent light and partially coherent background of infinite extent. In case of spatial coherence of the background lower than the threshold of incoherent modulation instability, these results indicate that bright photovoltaic solitons can propagate in a stable fashion.     

Waveguides formed by incoherent dark solitons

We demonstrate experimentally optical guidance of coherent light beams, using incoherent light. Such guidance is made possible by generation of partially spatially incoherent self-trapped dark beams (dark incoherent solitons) in a noninstantaneous nonlinear medium. In the one-dimensional case, the incoherent solitons induce single and Y-junction planar waveguides, whereas in the two-dimensional case, they form circular waveguides. These experiments introduce the possibility of controlling high-power laser beams with low-power incoherent light sources such as LED's or lightbulbs.

Dark incoherent soliton splitting in biased photorefractive-photovoltaic crystals

Using the coherent density approach, we study the dark incoherent soliton splitting in biased photorefractive-photovoltaic crystals. We show that when the full width half maximum (FWHM) of the optical beam’s intensity is increased, the odd incoherent dark beam splits into an odd-number sequence of multiple dark stripes, whereas the even incoherent dark beam splits into an even-number sequence of multiple dark stripes. We find that when more incoherent solitons are generated, the separations between adjacent dark stripes become smaller and the stripes far away from the center become less visible and that for a given physical system and for a given splitting, the separations between adjacent dark stripes decrease with an increase in the intensity FWHM of the optical beam. On the other hand, the dark incoherent soliton splitting in biased photorefractive-photovoltaic crystals is the dark incoherent screening soliton splitting when the bulk photovoltaic effect is neglectable and the dark incoherent closed- and open-circuit photovoltaic soliton splitting when the external bias field is absent.     

Interactions of dark solitons in photovoltaic photorefractive crystals with diffusion nonlinearity

We investigate the interaction of spatial dark optical soliton pair in open-circuit photovoltaic photorefractive crystals by considering the effect of background light and diffusion nonlinearity. We show that the spatial dark solitons repel each other and travel along different trajectories for the coherent interactions that one undergoes reflection and the other one deflects significantly when they are closely overlapped, and the dark solitons attract and deflect simultaneously along a parabolic trajectory for the case of incoherent interactions. The deflection distance depends on the intensities and the initial separation between the dark solitons.
