Two-color multistep cascading and parametric soliton-induced waveguides
arXiv:patt-sol/9905002 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.60.R5056
Abstract
We introduce the concept of two-color multistep cascading for vectorial parametric wave mixing in optical media with quadratic (second-order or chi-2) nonlinear response. We demonstrate that the multistep cascading allows light-guiding-light effects with quadratic spatial solitons. With the help of the so-called `almost exact' analytical solutions, we describe the properties of parametric waveguides created by two-wave quadratic solitons.
