Proceedings ArticleDOI
Blocking and routing discrete solitons in two-dimensional networks of nonlinear waveguide arrays
TL;DR: It is shown that discrete solitons can be navigated in two-dimensional networks of nonlinear waveguide arrays via vector interactions between two classes of discretesolitons: signals and blockers.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Minimizing bending losses in two-dimensional discrete soliton networks
TL;DR: It is shown that reflection losses suffered by discrete solitons along sharp bends in two-dimensional waveguide-array networks can be almost eliminated by appropriately engineering the corner site of the bend.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Discrete solitons in nonlinear zigzag optical waveguide arrays with tailored diffraction properties
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the discrete diffraction properties of a nonlinear optical zigzag waveguide array can be significantly modified, by exploiting the topological arrangement of the lattice itself.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Discrete solitons in photorefractive optically-induced photonic lattices

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that optical discrete solitons are possible in appropriately oriented biased photorefractive crystals, which can be accomplished in optically induced periodic waveg-uide lattices that are created via plane wave interference.

Discrete solitons in optically-induced photonic lattices
Jason W. Fleischer,Tal Carmon,Mordechai Segev,Nikos K. Efremidis,Demetrios N. Christodoulides +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first experimental observation of 2D discrete solitons in an array of optically-induced waveguides was reported, where the waveguide arrays are induced in photorefractives by interfering pairs of plane waves.
