In optical second-harmonic generation with normal dispersion, the virtually infinite bandwidth of the unbounded, hyperbolic, modulational instability leads to quenching of spatial multisoliton formation and to the occurrence of a catastrophic spatiotemporal breakup when an extended beam is left to interact with an extremely weak external noise with a coherence time much shorter than that of the pump.

Abstract
In optical second-harmonic generation with normal dispersion, the virtually infinite bandwidth of the unbounded, hyperbolic, modulational instability leads to quenching of spatial multisoliton formation and to the occurrence of a catastrophic spatiotemporal breakup when an extended beam is left to interact with an extremely weak external noise with a coherence time much shorter than that of the pump.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
