Nonlinear Photonic Crystals

TL;DR: In this article, nonlinear photonic crystals with embedded nonlinear defects were used for the observation of many of the nonlinear effects earlier predicted and studied in nonlinear guided-wave optics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Asymmetric Vortex Solitons in Nonlinear Periodic Lattices

TL;DR: It is revealed the existence of asymmetric vortex solitons in ideally symmetric periodic lattices and how such nonlinear localized structures describing elementary circular flows can be analyzed systematically using the energy-balance relations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lagrangian approach for dark solitons

TL;DR: In this paper, a variational formalism for dark solitons based on a modification of the standard Lagrangian of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation is proposed, which allows to consider a variety of asymptotically nonvanishing localised solutions for applying a VAE together with the correct definition of momentum and energy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Instability of solitons governed by quadratic nonlinearities.

TL;DR: Stability of two-wave solitous supported by resonant parametric interactions in a diffractive (or dispersive) optical quadratic medium is investigated and it is found that the solitons can become unstable when the phase matching between the fundamental and second harmonics is not exactly satisfied.
