Polychromatic interface solitons in nonlinear photonic lattices

Pattern Formation and Solitons 2009-04-01 v1

Abstract

We demonstrate that interfaces between two nonlinear periodic photonic lattices offer unique possibilities for controlling nonlinear interaction between different spectral components of polychromatic light, and a change in the light spectrum can have a dramatic effect on the propagation along the interface. We predict the existence of polychromatic surface solitons which differ fundamentally from their counterparts in infinite lattices.
