Dynamics of collinear Laguerre–Gaussian beams in nonlocal nonlinear media

We study the optical fields that are produced by two collinear Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) beams in strongly nonlocal nonlinear media. Various novel kinds of rotating breathers and solitons, such as quadrangle, pentacle, pentagon, etc. can be obtained by combining different mode-index LG beams with the different relative amplitude. The rotating and translating asymmetric breathers and solitons can be obtained when the difference of the azimuthal charge between the two combining LG beams is 1.     

The （l＋l）-dimensional spatial solitons in media with weak nonlinear nonlocality

We study the propagation of (1+1)-dimensional spatial soliton in a nonlocal Kerr-type medium with weak nonlocality. First, we show that an equation for describing the soliton propagation in weak nonlocality is a nonlinear Schr?dinger 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.     

Soliton guidance and nonlinear coupling for polarized vector spiraling elliptic Hermite–Gaussian beams in nonlocal nonlinear media

We investigate the incoherent beams with two orthogonal polarizations in nonlocal nonlinear media, one of which is a fundamental Gaussian beam and the other is spiraling elliptic Hermite–Gaussian beam carrying the orbital angular momentum(OAM).Using the variational approach, we obtain the critical power and the critical OAM required for the vector spiraling elliptic Hermite–Gaussian solitons.In the strong nonlocality region, two components of the vector beam contribute to the nonlinear refractive index in a linear manner by the sum of their respective power.The nonlinear refractive index exhibits a circularly symmetrical profile in despite of the elliptic shapes for spiraling Hermite–Gaussian beams.We find that in the strong nonlocality region, the critical power and the rotational velocity are the same regardless of the relative ratio of the constituent powers.The nonlinear refractive index loses its circular symmetry in weak nonlocality region, and the nonlinear coupling effect is observed.Due to the radiation of the OAM, the damping of the rotation is predicted, and can be suppressed by decreasing the proportion of the spiraling elliptic component of the vector beam.     

Variational solutions for Hermite--Gaussian solitons in nonlocal nonlinear media

The physical features exhibited by Hermite--Gaussian (HG) beams propagating in nonlocal nonlinear media with Gaussian-shaped response are discussed with an approximate variational method. Using direct numerical simulations, we find that the beam properties in the normalized system are different with the change of the degree of nonlocality. It is shown that initial HG profiles break up into several individual beams with propagation when the degree of nonlocality $\alpha$ is small. HG beams can propagate stably when $\alpha$ is large enough.     

Propagation of optical vortex solitons due to the Gouy phase in strongly nonlocal nonlinear media

In this paper,we present a study on the propagation of the symmetrical optical vortices formed by two collinear Laguerre-Gauss solitons in strongly nonlocal nonlinear media.The optical vortices,which move along the beam axis as the light propagates,result in a rotation of the beam’s transverse profile.This physical reason of the rotation is the Gouy phase acquired by the component beams.     

A high order energy preserving scheme for the strongly coupled nonlinear Schr¨odinger system

A high order energy preserving scheme for a strongly coupled nonlinear Schr¨odinger system is proposed by using the average vector field method. The high order energy preserving scheme is applied to simulate the soliton evolution of the strongly coupled Schr¨odinger system. Numerical results show that the high order energy preserving scheme can well simulate the soliton evolution, moreover, it preserves the discrete energy of the strongly coupled nonlinear Schr¨odinger system exactly.     

Chaos control in the nonlinear Schrdinger equation with Kerr law nonlinearity

The nonlinear Schrdinger equation with Kerr law nonlinearity in the two-frequency interference is studied by the numerical method.Chaos occurs easily due to the absence of damping.This phenomenon will cause the distortion in the process of information transmission.We find that fiber-optic transmit signals still present chaotic phenomena if the control intensity is smaller.With the increase of intensity,the fiber-optic signal can stay in a stable state in some regions.When the strength is suppressed to a certain value,an unstable phenomenon of the fiber-optic signal occurs.Moreover we discuss the sensitivities of the parameters to be controlled.The results show that the linear term coefficient and the environment of two quite different frequences have less effects on the fiber-optic transmission.Meanwhile the phenomena of vibration,attenuation and escape occur in some regions.     

Nonlinear optical properties in double-sided nonlinear media with Z-scan technique based on the Huygens——Fresnel principle

We present a theoretical model to analyse the propagation of a Gaussian laser beam through double-sided nonlinear media. This model is based on the Huygens--Fresnel diffraction integral method. This theoretical model is not only consistent with the cascade structure model for a small nonlinear phase-shift but also can be used for a large nonlinear phase-shift. It has been verified that it is suitable to characterize the double-sided nonlinear media compared with the cascade structure model. A good agreement between the experimental data and the results from the theoretical model is obtained. It will be useful for the design of multi-sided nonlinear materials.     

Exact solutions for nonlinear Schr?dinger equation in phase space: applications to Bose－Einstein condensate

The stationary-state nonlinear Schr?dinger equation, which models the dilute-gas Bose－Einstein condensate, is introduced within the framework of the quantum phase-space representation established by Torres-Vega and Frederick. The exact solutions of equation are obtained in the phase space, by means of the wave-mechanics method. The eigenfunctions in position and momentum spaces are obtained through the ‘Fourier-like' projection transformation from the phase space eigenfunctions. The eigenfunction with a hypersecant part is discussed as an example.

A very general family of self-trapped circular beams (CiBs) in circular cylindrical coordinates is presented in strongly nonlocal nonlinear media. The complex amplitude of the CiBs is depicted by the product of the Whittaker functions and the Gaussian function, and is characterized by two parameters. Special cases of the CiBs and the even and odd mode CiBs are the standard, elegant, and generalized Laguerre-Gaussian beams and the even and odd mode standard, elegant, and generalized Laguerre-Gaussian beams.

The IGSs form the exact and continuous transition modes between Hermite-Gaussian solitons and Laguerre-Gaussian solitons.
