Abstract

Experiments on the properties of quadratic, two-dimensional spatial soliton properties in KNbO3 near and at noncritical phase matching (NCPM) are reported. The NCPM geometry leads to unique features such as a large angular bandwidth for soliton generation, weak dependence of soliton composition on intensity and incidence angle, and unique multi soliton-generation properties.
