Discrete surface solitons
Open accessAbstract
It is theoretically shown that discrete nonlinear surface waves are possible in waveguide lattices. These self-trapped states are located at the edge of the array and can exist only above a certain power threshold. The excitation characteristics and stability properties of these surface waves are systematically investigated.

The shallow refractive index modulation in waveguide arrays facilitates nonlinear optical surface waves, allowing observation at moderate power levels at the edge of semi-infinite arrays in 1D and 2D.
“the relatively shallow refractive index modulation in waveguide arrays facilitates the formation of nonlinear optical surface waves significantly and they can be observed already at moderate power levels at the edge of semi-infinite arrays in the 1D [85,86] as well as in the twodimensional case [87][88][89].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
