Abstract

We study experimentally and numerically the nonlinear scattering of wave packets by local multi-site guiding centers embedded in a continuous dielectric medium, as a function of the input power and angle of incidence. The extent of trapping into the linear modes of different sites is manipulated as a function of both the input power and incidence angle, demonstrating power-controlled switching of nonlinear trapping by local photonic potentials.
