“…In optics, electromagnetic surface waves are known to exist in the linear limit as the waves localized at the interface separating either two homogeneous (one of them has to be surface-active, i.e., exhibits a negative permittivity, [1]) or homogeneous and periodic dielectric media [2], while nonlinear dielectric media can support different types of nonlinear guided waves localized at or near the surfaces [3,4]. Nonlinear guided waves in planar waveguides have been studied extensively about 20 years ago (see a series of the pioneering papers [5,6,7,8,9] and references therein).…”

We analyze spatiotemporal light localization near the edge of a semi-infinite array of weakly coupled nonlinear optical waveguides and demonstrate the existence of a novel class of continuous-discrete spatiotemporal solitons, the so-called discrete surface light bullets. We show that their properties are strongly affected by the presence of the surface. To this end the crossover between surface and quasi-bulk bullets is studied by analyzing the families of solitons propagating at different distances from the edge of the waveguide array.

“…In the 1980s a great deal of interest arose in nonlinear optical surface waves guided by single and multiple interfaces separating different media [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. These electromagnetic surface waves are a purely nonlinear phenomenon with no counterpart in the linear limit; they exist only if the mode power exceeds a certain threshold.…”

Abstract:Systematic results of collisions between discrete spatiotemporal dissipative Ginzburg-Landau solitons in two-dimensional photonic lattices are reported. The generic outcomes are identified for (i) the collision of two identical solitons located in the corner, at the edge, and in the center of the photonic lattice, and for (ii) the collision of two non-identical corner and edge solitons located at different distances from the boundaries of the photonic lattice. Depending on the values of the kick (collision momentum) and of the nonlinear (cubic) gain, the collision scenarios include soliton merging, creation of an extra soliton, soliton bouncing, soliton spreading, and quasi-elastic (symmetric) interactions. 05.45.Yv, 42.65.Tg, 42.65.Sf, 47.20 PACS (2008):
