Collapse arrest in instantaneous Kerr media via parametric interactions
journal contribution
posted on 2023-06-08, 21:19 authored by Alessia Pasquazi, Marco Peccianti, Matteo Clerici, Claudio Conti, Roberto MorandottiWe demonstrate, theoretically and experimentally, that a four-wave mixing parametric interaction is able to arrest the collapse of a two-dimensional multicolor beam in an instantaneous Kerr medium. We consider two weak idlers interacting via a third order nonlinearity with two pump beams and we show that a class of collapse-free quasisolitary solutions can be experimentally observed in a normal dispersion Kerr glass. This observation is sustained by rigorous theoretical analysis demonstrating the stability of the observed self-trapped beams.
