Gap solitons and the nonlinear optical response of superlattices
We study theoretically the transmission of radiation through superlattices of finite length, where the dielectric constant of one film in each unit cell contains a term linear i...
Weak Localization and Coherent Backscattering of Photons in Disordered Media
Coherent backscattering of waves by a disordered scattering medium is responsible for weak localization. We have directly observed this effect for the first time using visible l...
Dynamical instabilities and the transition to chaotic Taylor vortex flow
We have used the technique of laser-Doppler velocimetry to study the transition to turbulence in a fluid contained between concentric cylinders with the inner cylinder rotating....
Proposed Experiment to Test Local Hidden-Variable Theories
A theorem of Bell, proving that certain predictions of quantum mechanics are inconsistent with the entire family of local hidden-variable theories, is generalized so as to apply...
Transverse laser patterns. I. Phase singularity crystals
We analyze the interaction and the competition of a set of transverse cavity modes, which belong to a frequency-degenerate family. The laser turns out to be able to realize seve...
