Surface lattice kink solitons.
We predict theoretically that surface of an optical lattice imprinted in defocusing nonlinear media can support shock, or kink waves. Such new surface waves contain a modulationally stable pedestal and are strongly localized at the edge of the optical lattice due to Bragg-type reflection. The kink steepness and localization degree can be controlled by the lattice depth. We found two types of ki...
متن کاملSurface plasmonic lattice solitons.
We reveal the existence of the surface plasmonic lattice solitons (surface PLSs) at the boundary of a semi-infinite metallic-dielectric periodic nanostructure. We find that the truncation of the periodic structure imposes a threshold power for the existence of surface PLSs, and significantly enhances the modal localization. The propagation and excitation of surface PLSs as well as their potenti...
متن کاملTwo-color surface lattice solitons.
We study the properties of surface solitons generated at the edge of a semi-infinite photonic lattice in nonlinear quadratic media, namely two-color surface lattice solitons. We analyze the impact of phase mismatch on the existence and stability of nonlinear surface modes and find novel classes of two-color twisted surface solitons, which are stable in a large domain of their existence.
متن کاملSurface lattice solitons in diffusive nonlinear media.
We address the properties of surface solitons supported by optical lattices imprinted in photorefractive media with asymmetrical diffusion nonlinearity. Such solitons exist only in finite gaps of the lattice spectrum. In contrast to latticeless geometries, where surface waves exist only when nonlinearity deflects light toward the material surface, the surface lattice solitons exist in settings ...
متن کاملLattice-supported surface solitons in nonlocal nonlinear media.
We reveal that lattice interfaces imprinted in nonlocal nonlinear media support surface solitons that do not exist in other similar settings, including interfaces of local and nonlocal uniform materials. We show the impact of nonlocality on the domains of existence and stability of the surface solitons, focusing on new types of dipole solitons residing partially inside the optical lattice. We f...
