The numerical solutions of gray spatial solitons supported by linear and quadratic electro-optic (EO) effects in two-photon photorefractive (PR) media are deduced. The characteristics of the gray spatial soliton, soliton pair and soliton family are investigated by numerical method. The full width at half maximum of the gray spatial soliton increases gradually with the increase of the grayness, but decreases gradually with the increase of the soliton optical intensity and external electric field. Also, every soliton component in the gray–gray soliton pair or soliton family has the same full width at half maximum.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
