Stable Spatial Solitons In Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers
A spatial soliton is a shape invariant self guided beam of light or a self induced waveguide. Spatial solitons appear as a result of the balance of diffraction and nonlinear focusing in a system. They have been observed in many different conservative media in the last couple of years. Solitons are …

Electromagnetic waves in nonlinear and linear magnetooptic metamaterials
… A thorough investigation of both temporal and spatial solitons is at the heart ofthis thesis, and in both cases the nonlinear Schrodinger equation is an appropriate modelfor propagation of weakly nonlinear waves. Metamaterials that possess electric andmagnetic nonlinearity are comprehensively …

Iterative nonlinear beam propagation method and its application in nonlinear devices
… Kerr effect phenomena such as self-focusing and spatial solitons. As the application to the analysis of nonlinear optical devices, this method is applied to nonlinear Lineburg lens. It is found that the nonlinear Liineburg lens is able to compensate the focal shift caused by the diffraction of …

Quadratic Spatial Soliton Interactions
Quadratic spatial soliton interactions were investigated in this Dissertation. The first part deals with characterizing the principal features of multi-soliton generation and soliton self-reflection. The second deals with two beam processes leading to soliton interactions and collisions. These …
