Language: | eng | Issue Date: | Nov-2006 | Publisher: | Soc. | Document Type: | Article | Journal / Series / Working Paper (HSU): | Optics express | Volume: | 14 | Issue: | 23 | Page Start: | 11248 | Page End: | 11255 | Publisher Place: | Washington, DC | Abstract: | We experimentally demonstrate the interaction of an optical probe beam with both bright and dark blocker solitons formed with low optical light power in a saturable defocusing waveguide array in photorefractive lithium niobate. A phase insensitive interaction of the beams is achieved by means of counterpropagating light waves. Partial and full reflection (blocking) of the probe beam on the positive or negative light-induced defect is obtained, respectively, in good agreement with numerical simulations. |
