Optical beams in nonlocal nonlinear media Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • We discuss propagation of optical beams in nonlocal Kerr-like media with the nonlocality of general form. We study the effect of nonlocality on modulational instability of the plane wave fronts, collapse of finite beams and formation of spatial solitons.
