    • Morales Inostroza, Luis; Vicencio Poblete, Rodrigo (American Physical Society, 2016)
      We develop a simple and general method to construct arbitrary flat-band lattices. We identify the basic ingredients behind zero-dispersion bands and develop a method to construct extended lattices based on a consecutive ...
    • Vicencio Poblete, Rodrigo; Molina Gálvez, Mario; Kivshar, Yuri S. (2004)
      We study all-optical switching based on the dynamic properties of discrete vector solitons in waveguide arrays. We employ the concept of polarization mode instability and demonstrate simultaneous switching and amplification ...
    • Rojas Rojas, Santiago; Morales Inostroza, Luis; Naether, U.; Xavier, G. B.; Nolte, S.; Szameit, A.; Vicencio Poblete, Rodrigo; Lima, G.; Delgado, A. (American Physical Society, 2014)
      © 2014 American Physical Society. We study the polarization properties of elliptical femtosecond-laser-written waveguide arrays. An analytical model is presented to explain the asymmetry of the spatial transverse profiles ...
    • Johansson, Magnus; Naether, Uta; Vicencio Poblete, Rodrigo (Amer Physical Soc, 2015)
      We discuss the properties of nonlinear localized modes in sawtooth lattices, in the framework of a discrete nonlinear Schrodinger modelwith general on-site nonlinearity. Analytic conditions for existence of exact compact ...
    • Vicencio Poblete, Rodrigo; Molina Gálvez, Mario; Kivshar, Yuri S. (Optical Society of America (OSA), 2003)
      A study was performed on controlled switching of discrete solitons in waveguide arrays. The study involved weak steplike modulation of the coupling strength in the array with the period larger than the waveguide spacing. ...
    • Vicencio Poblete, Rodrigo; Mejía-Cortés, Cristian (2014)
      We study the propagation of non-diffracting images in kagome photonic lattices. In a weak-coupling regime (discrete approach), the linear spectrum is composed by only three bands, including a completely degenerated and ...

    • Molina Gálvez, Mario; Vicencio Poblete, Rodrigo; Kivshar, Yuri S. (OPTICAL SOC AMER, 2006-06-01)
      We discuss the formation of self-trapped localized states near the edge of a semi-infinite array of nonlinear optical waveguides. We study a crossover from nonlinear surface states to discrete solitons by analyzing the ...
    • Vicencio Poblete, Rodrigo; Flach, Sergej; Molina Gálvez, Mario; Kivshar, Yuri S. (2007)
      We study nonlinear surface modes in two-dimensional anisotropic periodic photonic lattices and demonstrate that, in a sharp contrast to one-dimensional discrete surface solitons, the mode threshold power is lower at the ...

      We analyze the transport of light in the bulk and at the edge of photonic Lieb lattices, whose unique feature is the existence of a flat band representing stationary states in the middle of the band structure that can ...
    • Vicencio Poblete, Rodrigo; Brand, Joachim; Flach, Sergej (2007)
      We study the transport of atoms across a localized Bose-Einstein condensate in a one-dimensional optical lattice. For atoms scattering off the condensate, we predict total reflection as well as full transmission for certain ...
