Abstract

We have shown that the surface spatial soliton formation is possible near the interface between a photorefractive crystal with a drift and diffusion nonlinearity and linear dielectric or metal. The zero order soliton shape is essentially asymmetric due to the diffusion nonlinearity. The N-th order soliton solution looks like a sequence of decaying antiphase peaks.
