Observation of the optical components inherent in multi-wave non-collinear acousto-optical coupled states

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

Three- and four-wave spatial Bragg solitons in the form of weakly coupled states, originating with one- and two-phonon non-collinear scattering of light in anisotropic medium, are uncovered. The spatial-frequency distributions of their optical components are investigated both theoretically and experimentally.
