We address the dynamics of higher-order solitons in optical lattices, and predict their self-splitting into the set of their single-soliton constituents. The splitting is induced by the potential introduced by the lattice, together with the imprinting of a phase tilt onto the initial multisoliton states. The phenomenon allows the controllable generation of several coherent solitons linked via their Zakharov-Shabat eigenvalues. Application of the scheme to the generation of correlated matter waves in Bose-Einstein condensates is discussed.

Exploration of the impact of synthetic material landscapes featuring tunable geometrical properties on physical processes is a research direction that is currently of great interest because of the outstanding phenomena that are continually being unco
vered. Twistronics and the properties of wave excitations in moire lattices are salient examples. Moire patterns bridge the gap between aperiodic structures and perfect crystals, thus opening the door to the exploration of effects accompanying the transition from commensurate to incommensurate phases. Moire patterns have revealed profound effects in graphene-based systems1,2,3,4,5, they are used to manipulate ultracold atoms6,7 and to create gauge potentials8, and are observed in colloidal clusters9. Recently, it was shown that photonic moire lattices enable observation of the two-dimensional localization-to-delocalization transition of light in purely linear systems10,11. Here, we employ moire lattices optically induced in photorefractive nonlinear media12,13,14 to elucidate the formation of optical solitons under different geometrical conditions controlled by the twisting angle between the constitutive sublattices. We observe the formation of solitons in lattices that smoothly transition from fully periodic geometries to aperiodic ones, with threshold properties that are a pristine direct manifestation of flat-band physics11.
We study the means to prepare and coherently manipulate atomic wave packets in optical lattices, with particular emphasis on alkali atoms in the far-detuned limit. We derive a general, basis independent expression for the lattice operator, and show t
hat its off-diagonal elements can be tailored to couple the vibrational manifolds of separate magnetic sublevels. Using these couplings one can evolve the state of a trapped atom in a quantum coherent fashion, and prepare pure quantum states by resolved-sideband Raman cooling. We explore the use of atoms bound in optical lattices to study quantum tunneling and the generation of macroscopic superposition states in a double-well potential. Far-off-resonance optical potentials lend themselves particularly well to reservoir engineering via well controlled fluctuations in the potential, making the atom/lattice system attractive for the study of decoherence and the connection between classical and quantum physics.
For optical systems, states inside the light cone could be detected by far-field measurement, while those below the light cone are not detectable by far-field measurement. A new method for far-field detection has been developed for observing states b
elow the light cone with compound lattices. The basic mechanism involved is that periodic weak scattering leads to band folding, making the states out of the light cone to occur inside. By using polarization-resolved momentum-space imaging spectroscopy the band structures and iso-frequency contours of plasmonic lattices with different dimensions and symmetries are experimentally mapped out, in good agreement with the simulation.
By identifying the similarities between the coupled-wave equations and the parametrically driven nonlinear Schrodinger equation, we unveil the existence condition of the quadratic soliton mode-locked degenerate optical parametric oscillator in the pr
eviously unexplored parameter space of near-zero group velocity mismatch. We study the nature of the quadratic solitons and divide their dynamics into two distinctive branches depending on the system parameters. We find the nonlinear interaction between the resonant pump and signal results in phenomena that resemble the dispersive two-photon absorption and the dispersive Kerr effect. Origin of the quadratic soliton perturbation is identified and strategy to mitigate its detrimental effect is developed. Terahertz comb bandwidth and femtosecond pulse duration are attainable in an example periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide resonator in the short-wave infrared and an example orientation-patterned gallium arsenide free-space cavity in the long-wave infrared. The quadratic soliton mode-locking principle can be extended to other material platforms, making it a competitive ultrashort pulse and broadband comb source architecture at the mid-infrared.
Soliton crystals are periodic patterns of multi-spot optical fields formed from either time or space entanglements of equally separated identical high-intensity pulses. These specific nonlinear optical structures have gained interest in recent years
with the advent and progress in nonlinear optical fibers and fiber lasers, photonic crystals, wave-guided wave systems and most recently optical ring microresonator devices. In this work an extensive analysis of characteristic features of soliton crystals is carried out, with emphasis on their one-to-one correspondance with Elliptic solitons. In this purpose we examine their formation, their stability and their dynamics in ring-shaped nonlinear optical media within the framework of the Lugiato-Lefever equation. The stability analysis deals with internal modes of the system via a $2times2$-matrix Lame type eigenvalue problem, the spectrum of which is shown to possess a rich set of boundstates consisting of stable zero-fequency modes and unstable decaying as well as growing modes. Turning towards the dynamics of Elliptic solitons in ring-shaped fiber resonators with Kerr nonlinearity, first of all we propose a collective-coordinate approach, based on a Lagrangian formalism suitable for Elliptic-soliton solutions to the nonlinear Schrodinger equation with an arbitrary perturbation. Next we derive time evolutions of Elliptic-soliton parameters in the specific context of ring-shaped optical fiber resonators, where the optical field evolution is tought to be governed by the Lugiato-Lefever equation. By solving numerically the collective-coordinate equations an analysis of the amplitude, the position, the phase of internal oscillations, the phase velocity and the energy is carried out and reveals a complex dynamics of the Elliptic soliton in ring-shaped optical microresonators.
