Abstract

We introduce and discuss the shaping properties of a novel optical lattice that we call dynamic parabolic optical lattice (DPOL). While the transverse structure of the DPOL is characterized by a suitable superposition of parabolic nondiffracting beams with different transverse wave numbers, its longitudinal structure exhibits a controlled periodic modulation. We address the existence and the controlled stability of two-dimensional solitons in DPOLs and characterize its propagation. An efficient numerical method for constructing nondiffracting parabolic beams and DPOLs is presented as well.
