ALL OPTICAL DOUBLE QUASI-STEADY-STATE SPATIAL SOLITON
全光双准稳态空间孤子

We observed for the first time (to our knowledge) a new type of all optical double-quasi-steady-state photorefractive spatial soliton in a Cu:KNSBN crystal.The soliton was created without an applied electric field but with an inducing laser beam.An all optical switching effect was found in the formation of the soliton.
