Nematicons: Optical Spatial Solitons in Nematic Liquid Crystals
Gaetano Assanto, Marco Peccianti and Claudio Conti
Nematicons are self-trapped light beams in nematic liquid crystalline systems. Thanks to their optically nonlinear, saturable, nonlocal and nonresonant response, they enable light to self-confine and guide
additional optical signals, making them an ideal testbed for applications in all-optical information processing.
