All-optical switching and amplification of discrete vector solitons in nonlinear cubic birefringent waveguide arrays

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We study all-optical switching based on the dynamic properties of discrete vector solitons in waveguide arrays. We employ the concept of polarization mode instability and demonstrate simultaneous switching and amplification of a weak signal by a strong pump of the opposite polarization.
