Language: | eng | Issue Date: | 2002 | Publisher: | Soc. | Document Type: | Article | Journal / Series / Working Paper (HSU): | Journal of the Optical Society of America B | Volume: | 19 | Issue: | 3 | Page Start: | 502 | Page End: | 512 | Publisher Place: | Washington, DC | Abstract: | We present a comprehensive study of the one-dimensional modulation instability of partially spatially incoherent light in noninstantaneous self-focusing media. For this instability to occur, the nonlinearity has to exceed a specific threshold that depends on the coherence properties of the beam. Above this threshold a uniform-intensity partially spatially coherent wave front becomes unstable and breaks up into periodic trains of one-dimensional stripes. © 2002 Optical Society of America. |
