Polarization instability in a waveguide geometry

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show theoretically that polarization instability can be observed in planar optical waveguides. Such instability would lead to energy exchange between the spatial solitons associated with the TE0 and TM0 waveguide modes as well as to amplitude-modulation gain, which was recently observed in an optical-fiber geometry.
