Interactions of accessible solitons with interfaces in anisotropic media: the case of uniaxial nematic liquid crystals
We investigate, both theoretically and experimentally, spatial soliton interaction with dielectric interfaces in a strongly anisotropic medium with non-locality, such as nematic liquid crystals. We throw light on the role of refractive index gradients as well as optic axis variations in both voltage...
