Nonlinear surface waves at the interfaces of left-handed electromagnetic media.

We report the existence of families of nonlinear TE-polarized surface waves propagating along the interface between different conventional and left-handed electromagnetic media as well as between two left-handed media. Both nonlinear/nonlinear and linear/nonlinear interfaces are considered. The constraints for the mode existence are identified and the energy flow associated with the surface modes is calculated.

Ising-Bloch transition for the parametric Ginzburg-Landau equation with rapidly varying perturbations.

We study the effects of rapid periodic and stochastic modulations of parameters in systems described by the complex parametric Ginzburg-Landau equation. Amplitude equations, which govern the dynamics of the field averaged over the rapid modulations, are derived. For temporal modulations of the linear detuning the threshold for the transition from Ising to Bloch walls is shifted depending on the strength of the perturbation. In contrast to this, rapid perturbations of the linear gain lead only to a decrease of the amplitude of both wall types leaving the bifurcation point of the Ising-Bloch transition unchanged. Stochastic perturbations of the detuning lead to a Brownian motion of the Bloch wall beyond bifurcation where the velocity is given analytically. All theoretical predictions are confirmed by numerical simulations of the full stochastic Ginzburg-Landau equation.

Dichromatic nonlinear eigenmodes in slab waveguide with chi(2) nonlinearity.

The existence of purely nonlinear eigenmodes in a waveguiding structure composed of a slab with quadratic nonlinearity surrounded by (non)linear claddings is reported. Modes having bright and dark solitonlike shapes and consisting of two mutually locked harmonics are identified. Asymmetrical modes are shown to exist in symmetrical environments. Constraints for the existence of the modes are derived in terms of parameters of guiding structure materials.
