Abstract:
We describe new planar multiport devices written by spatial solitons that are composed of several nonlinearly coupled components in Kerr-type media. Such devices have no radiation losses at a given wavelength. We demonstrate that, for the same relative angle between the input soliton-induced channels, one can vary the transmission coefficients into the output channels by adjusting the polarizations of multicomponent solitons. We determine analytically the transmission properties and discuss two types of experimental embodiment of the proposed device.

Membrane Transporters
Transporters are mainly composed of alpha-helices, built from bundles of ten or more helices traversing the plasma membrane. The solute-binding sites are located midway, where some of the helices are broken or distorted, making space for the binding site through...
