Observation of edge solitons in photonic graphene
Edge states are excitations existing at the boundary of truncated periodic materials with specific spectral degeneracies, and their properties are enriched when materials possess a nonlinear response.

Résumé: | Edge states are excitations existing at the boundary of truncated periodic materials with specific spectral degeneracies, and their properties are enriched when materials possess a nonlinear response. Here, the authors provide experimental evidence of edge soliton formation in a nonlinear photonic graphene lattice induced in an atomic vapour cell. |
