Abstract
The temporal development of extended nonlinear modes of a one-dimensional photonic crystal during the build-up of the nonlinearity is experimentally investigated. For this a prism coupling setup is used, which allows for a direct comparison of linear and nonlinear photonic band structures. The experimental results are compared with numerical calculations which make use of the Floquet-Bloch approach and the finite difference approximation. © 2008 The American Physical Society.
