Description:
Author(s): C. Martijn de Sterke, Irina V. Kabakova, Ishraq Uddin, Jonathan Jeyaratnam, and Boris A. Malomed We study spontaneous symmetry breaking in localized modes trapped by a pair of defects embedded in a Bragg grating written in a Kerr-nonlinear material. While the system has two symmetric modes at low energies, the nonlinearity renders one of these unstable in favor of an asymmetric mode emerging at... [Phys. Rev.
