Elliptic Hermite-Gaussian soliton and transformations in nonlocal media induced by linear anisotropy
Abstract:
Elliptic Hermite-Gaussian (HG) soliton clusters in nonlocal media with anisotropic diffractions are studied comprehensively. The relations among solitons parameters, diffraction indices, and the degree of nonlocality are derived analytically with the Lagrangian method. Stable elliptic HG soliton clusters can be obtained when linear diffraction is anisotropic. When the solitons are launched with an initial orientation angle, we also demonstrate numerically mode transformations between HG and Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) solitons induced by linear anisotropy. Our results will enrich the soliton phenomenon with linear anisotropic diffraction and may lead to novel applications in all-optical switching, interconnection, etc.
