The solitons are formed through a sharp transition from diffraction-induced broadening and color separation to the simultaneous spatio-spectral localization of supercontinuum light inside the photonic bandgap with the formation of the characteristic staggered phase structure for all colors.6 pages"OSA will grant the authors permission to deposit the publisher’s pdf from their Optics Express articles into the repository with the proper citation (reference number or journal /volume/page/year citation)." - from email received from Authorized Agent, The Optical Society, 27/05/10nonlinear optics, transverse effects innonlinear optics: pulse propagation and solitonsself-action effectsObservation of polychromatic gap solitons2008-04-1410.1364/OE.16.0059912015-12-08
