Abstract

Based on the effective discrete equations for the study of light transmission in pho-tonic crystal waveguides with embedded nonlinear defects, we study a number of nonlinearity-induced effects, such as bistable propagation, all-optical switching, resonant transmission through a bend, and light self-trapping in the form of spatial solitons.
