Spatial Akhmediev breathers and modulation instability growth-decay cycles in a quadratic optical medium

We investigate the spatial nonlinear localization of light on a quasi-plane-wave background with a harmonic perturbation induced by modulation instability in a quadratic nonlinear optical medium. In particular, we demonstrate experimentally the excitation of deterministic Akhmediev breathers and thu...
