Journal ArticleDOI

Solitons in nonlinear lattices

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive survey of results obtained for solitons and complex nonlinear wave patterns supported by nonlinear lattices is presented, with emphasis on perspectives for implementation of the theoretical predictions in the experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatiotemporal optical solitons

TL;DR: In this article, an up-to-date survey of experimental and theoretical results in spatiotemporal optical solitons can be found, together with a review of the outstanding difficulties and open problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Management of the angular momentum of light: preparation of photons in multidimensional vector states of angular momentum.

TL;DR: It is shown that suitable light vortex pancakes allow the add-drop of specific vector projections and it is suggested that such photons might allow the generation of engineered quNits in multidimensional quantum information systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

χ(2) cascading phenomena and their applications to all-optical signal processing, mode-locking, pulse compression and solitons

TL;DR: Cascading is the process by which the exchange of energy between optical beams interacting via second order nonlinearities leads to various effects such as nonlinear phase shifts, the generation of new beams, all-optical transistor action, the formation of soliton-like (solitary) waves, etc as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of two-dimensional spatial solitary waves in a quadratic medium.

TL;DR: The first experimental demonstration of two-dimensional spatial solitary waves in second-order nonlinear optical material is reported.
