Nematicons are self-trapped light beams in nematic liquid crystalline systems. Thanks to their optically nonlinear, saturable, nonlocal and nonresonant response, they enable light to self-confine and guide additional optical signals, making them an ideal testbed for applications in all-optical information.

Abstract
Nematicons are self-trapped light beams in nematic liquid crystalline systems. Thanks to their optically nonlinear, saturable, nonlocal and nonresonant response, they enable light to self-confine and guide additional optical signals, making them an ideal testbed for applications in all-optical information.File allegati a questo prodotto
