We provide an in-depth treatment of the various mechanisms by which an incident light
beam can produce an intensity-or flux-dependent change in the refractive index and …

Examining classic theories, experimental methods, and practical formulas for exploration of
the core topics in nonlinear optics, the second edition of this acclaimed text was extensively …

We show that photorefractive media can support a new type of spatial soliton, in which the
diffraction is balanced by the self-scattering (two-wave mixing) of the beam spatial frequency …

We report the first experimental observation of self-trapped Airy beams in a nonlinear
medium. As opposed to screening or photovoltaic spatial solitons, this new class of self …

We study the possibility of self-trapping of an optical beam in a photorefractive medium
under the combined influence of diffraction and self-scattering (two-wave mixing) of its …

The self-bending process of steady-state bright spatial solitons in biased photorefractive
media is investigated by taking into account diffusion effects. By integrating numerically the …

The current rapid and complex advancement applications of electromagnetic (EM) and
optical systems calls for a much needed update on the computational methods currently in …

The dynamical evolution of bright spatial solitons in biased photorefractive crystals is
investigated under steady-state conditions. Our numerical study indicates that these optical …

In recent years, there has been a rapid expansion in the field of nonlinear optics as weIl as
in the field of neural computing. Up to date, no one would doubt that nonlinear optics is one …
