Giant Goos–Hänchen shifts and radiation-induced trapping of Helmholtz solitons at nonlinear interfaces
Uncovers the true details of GGH shifts and radiation trapping when light is not at near-vanishing incidence angle at focusing interfaces (ie beyond previous theoretical limits). New qualitative and quantitative discoveries - such as spontaneous soliton trapping and new regimes predicted (eg in external refraction). Results, in competitive 'newsworthy' journal, later extended to alternative materials (eg at OSA, NLO, Hawaii, 2013). Material interfaces are a fundamental light-matter interaction context, central to technological device design and invention. This series of papers (international collaboration enabling first systematic understanding of interface angular effects) has resulted in 50 conference and journal outputs.
