Periodic energy switching of bright solitons in mixed coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations with linear self-coupling and cross-coupling terms By:Kanna, T (Kanna, T.); Vijayajayanthi, M (Vijayajayanthi, M.); Lakshmanan, M (Lakshmanan, M.) PHYSICAL REVIEW A Volume: 76 Issue: 1 Article Number: 013808 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevA.76.013808 Published: JUL 2007 View Journal Information Abstract The bright soliton solutions of the mixed coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations with two components (2-CNLS) with linear self- and cross-coupling terms have been obtained by identifying a transformation that transforms the corresponding equation to the integrable mixed 2-CNLS equations. The study on the collision dynamics of bright solitons shows that there exists periodic energy switching, due to the coupling terms. This periodic energy switching can be controlled by the new type of shape changing collisions of bright solitons arising in a mixed 2-CNLS system, characterized by intensity redistribution, amplitude dependent phase shift, and relative separation distance. We also point out that this system exhibits large periodic intensity switching even with very small linear selfcoupling strengths.
