Article Description

The authors show that the effect of self-focusing can be controlled by exploiting spatial dispersion effects in a photonic crystal. In the positive refraction region, the critical field value for self-guiding can be significantly reduced. In the negative refraction region, the self-focusing effect can be completely suppressed in spite of a positive Kerr coefficient. © 2007 American Institute of Physics.
