Nonlinear
Waves in Optics & Photonics:
Organizers: Demetrios Christodoulides and Zhigang Chen
This mini-symposium intends to bring together people who are
studying nonlinear waves in optics & photonics, in particular, in the
discrete optical systems. The symposium will include topics of theoretical
and experimental study on wave phenomena in nonlinear waveguide arrays,
photonic microstructures and lattices, as well as photonic crystals.
