Abstract :
Summary form only given. This presentation aims to demonstrate theoretically and experimentally the use of nonlinear photorefractive structures for two-dimensional flexible soliton networks. Results show that increased flexibility can be achieved when symmetry and anisotropic features of the nonlinearity are considered and the strong nonlinear response of the photorefractive material is exploited.
