Bistable Helmholtz dark spatial optical solitons in materials with self-defocusing saturable nonlinearity (2017)
Journal Article
Christian, J., & Lundie, M. (2017). Bistable Helmholtz dark spatial optical solitons in materials with self-defocusing saturable nonlinearity. Journal of Nonlinear Optical Physics and Materials, 26(02), https://doi.org/10.1142/S0218863517500242

We present, to the best of our knowledge, the first exact dark spatial solitons of a nonlinear Helmholtz equation with a self-defocusing saturable refractive-index model. These solutions capture oblique (arbitrary-angle) propagation in both the forwa...

Spontaneous spatial fractal pattern formation in dispersive systems (2017)
Journal Article
Huang, J., Christian, J., & McDonald, G. (2017). Spontaneous spatial fractal pattern formation in dispersive systems. Journal of Nonlinear Optical Physics and Materials, 26(01), https://doi.org/10.1142/S0218863517500096

We report spontaneous spatial optical fractal patterns in a ring cavity containing a thin slice of diffusive Kerr-type material. The Turing threshold instability condition is derived through linear analysis, and static patterns are found to be descri...
