Spatial quadratic solitons guided by narrow layers of a nonlinear material
Received February 7, 2011; revised April 16, 2011; accepted April 19, 2011; posted April 19, 2011 (Doc. ID 142374); published May 19, 2011 We report analytical solutions for spatial solitons supported by layers of a quadratically nonlinear (χð2Þ) material embedded into a linear planar waveguide. A full set of symmetric, asymmetric, and antisymmetric modes pinned to a symmetric pair of the nonli...
متن کاملGuided quadratic spatial solitons in semiconductor crystals
The possibility to exploit the relatively high second order nonlinear coefficient available in III-V semiconductors is analyzed in the paper. It is shown that in bulk material too high phase mismatch makes technologically impossible to employ these semiconductors because of a necessary prohibitive threshold power. To bypass this problem, the use of a planar waveguide is proposed. It is shown th...
متن کاملSpatial walking solitons in quadratic nonlinear crystals
We investigate the properties of the families of spatial walking solitons propagating in planar waveguides made of quadratic nonlinear media under conditions for second-harmonic generation in the presence of Poynting vector walk-off. We study in detail the shape and various features of the solitons, their stability on propagation, and their excitation. © 1998 Optical Society of America [S0740-3...
متن کاملSpatial optical solitons governed by quadratic nonlinearity.
We demonstrate that a dielectric medium with purely quadratic nonlinearity [the so-called chi((2)) material] can display self-focusing phenomena through a new type of modulational instability of the interacting fundamental and second-harmonic field components and therefore can support propagation of (two-wave) optical solitons. We prove the existence of a family of such solitons, which are foun...
متن کاملSolitons in quadratic nonlinear photonic crystals.
We study solitons in one-dimensional quadratic nonlinear photonic crystals with modulation of both the linear and nonlinear susceptibilities. We derive averaged equations that include induced cubic nonlinearities, which can be defocusing, and we numerically find previously unknown soliton families. Because of these induced cubic terms, solitons still exist even when the effective quadratic nonl...
