We demonstrate experimentally the broadband and adiabatic light transfer in coupled waveguides based on multiple stimulated Raman adiabatic passage. Our experimental platform utilizes planar-type reconfigurable optically induced waveguide arrays and allows for efficient and robust transfer of light from an input waveguide over multiple states (up to nine) to an output waveguide. The same waveguide structures are tested for two propagation wavelengths separated by more than 200 nm, proving the achromaticity of the transfer process.

“…Since their first experimental observation, PR solitons have been the subject of very intense experimental and theoretical studies. They have been observed not only in commonly used noncentrosymmetric PR crystals such as BTO [32], BSO [33], [34], [113], potassium niobate [35], [114], [36], and SBN, but also in biased semiconductors [37], [115], [38] and even centrosymmetric crystals [39]. These studies resulted in the obser- vation of a great variety of interesting features.…”

“…Note that the dark intensity can be related to a combination of the dark conductivity and the photoconductivity due to a homogeneous background irradiation of the crystal, if the latter exists (see Ref. [16] for a detailed discussion). In the following the quantities I(x) and I D will be normalized in such a way that I = 1 corresponds to the intensity of the controlling light on the crystal in the center of a perfectly imaged slit.…”

Light induced waveguides produced by lateral illumination of a photorefractive crystal show a complex dynamic evolution upon removal of the sustaining applied electric field. Using this effect, deflection and modulation of the guided light is realized by taking advantage of the screening and counter-screening of the space charge distribution. The spot separation upon deflection can exceed 10 times the original waveguide width. Numerical simulations of the refractive index evolution and beam propagation show a good agreement with the observations.
