J. Scheuer et M. Orenstein, Interactions and switching of spatial soliton pairs in the vicinity of a nonlinear interface, OPTICS LETT, 24(23), 1999, pp. 1735-1737
The interaction of spatial soliton pairs with a nonlinear interface was stu
died theoretically. With mediation of the interface, the two solitons exhib
ited efficient switching and double switching. A closed-form particlelike m
odel, validated by propagation calculations, yielded the soliton trajectori
es and switching characteristics. (C) 1999 Optical Society of America.
