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.
