We review both theoretical and experimental advances in the recently emerged field of
modulated photonic lattices. These artificial periodic dielectric structures provide a powerful …

Over the last few years arrays of evanescently coupled waveguides have been brought into
focus as a particular representation of functionalized optical materials, in which the …

Abstract Generalization of Fractional Schrödinger equation (FSE) into optics is
fundamentally important, since optics usually provides a fertile ground where FSE-related …

We report the observation of almost perfect light tunneling inhibition at the edge and inside
laser-written waveguide arrays due to band collapse. When the refractive index of the …

We study analytically and numerically vortex solitons in competing cubic-quintic nonlinear
media with normal and anomalous fourth order diffraction (FOD). Bifurcated solutions of …

One-dimensional laser-written modulated photonic lattices are known to be particularly
suitable for diffraction management purposes. Here, we address the connection between …

We present the generation, stability analysis, and energy optimization of diffraction managed
accessible breather solitons in highly nonlocal nonlinear media comprising an array of …

The propagation of chiral light in optically induced helical photonic waveguide arrays is
investigated. Manifested in their chiral interaction, the system's selectivity to optical orbital …

We present what we believe to be the first experimental demonstration of discrete solitons
under the influence of first-and second-order lattice site interaction in zigzag femtosecond …

We investigate dark solitons and their interactions in one-dimensional self-defocusing media
with fourth-order diffraction (FOD). Anomalous FOD supports bifurcated dark solitons when …
