Journal ArticleDOI
Bound solitary waves in a birefringent optical fiber.
M. V. Tratnik,John E. Sipe +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the first mixed-type solutions to the coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations which govern optical pulse propagation in a birefringent fiber were presented, which are bound states of two solitary waves which separately have constant and uniform orthogonal linear polarizations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low instability threshold in a laser operating in both states of polarization
TL;DR: It is shown that the instability threshold for a laser in which both polarizations are active can be much lower than the Haken second threshold and does not require the bad-cavity limit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear polarization dynamics. I. The single-pulse equations
M. V. Tratnik,John E. Sipe +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the polarization dynamics of a pulse propagating through an arbitrary nonlinear medium, in the limit of small nonlinearities, anisotropies, and dispersion, using the full SO(3) covariance of the Stokes parameters, are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear polarization dynamics. II. Counterpropagating-beam equations: New simple solutions and the possibilities for chaos.
