Nonlinear rotation of three-dimensional dark spatial solitons in a Gaussian laser beam

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Three-dimensional optical vortex solitons were created when a Gaussian beam containing a pair of off-axis screw dislocations propagated through a self-defocusing medium. We demonstrate rotation of the solitons around the beam axis by 90° as the nonlinearity is increased.
