Observation of quadratic spatial solitons in periodically poled lithium niobate
We report what are to our knowledge the first observation and characterization of quadratic spatial solitons in periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN). Using a Nd:YAG (1064nm) source, we observed self-trapped solitary-wave propagation over more than six diffraction lengths as a result of the casc...
