From Maxwell to paraxial wave optics
In this paper we are concerned with the propagation of a light beam through an inhomogeneous, isotropic medium with a possibly nonlinear index of refraction. The customary parax...
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...
Total-Field versus Scattered-Field Finite-Difference Codes: A Comparative Assessment
This paper deals with time-domain finite-difference (TDFD) techniques for solutions of Maxwell's equations. Two types of algorithms are treated: scattered-field algorithms in wh...
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...
Fluctuations in transverse laser patterns
We study the effects of white additive noise on a transverse pattern of the laser formed by the combination of three degenerate transverse modes. In the semiclassical descriptio...
