Abstract

Wobbling phenomena of spatial soliton in an inhomogeneous medium is investigated. By means of effective-particle approach method, we analyze the dynamics of the solitons. The results show that solitons wobble in transverse direction during propagation. The normalized width of the waveguide play a key role in determining the wobbling periods of solitons. Furthermore, the propagation dynamics of the solitons are simulated numerically and a good agreement is obtained between the analysis and the numerical results. This phenomenon may be used in all-optical router, switcher etc.
