摘要：

We present a comprehensive analysis of the generation, propagation and characteristic properties of two-dimensional spatial solitons formed in quasi-phase-matched gratings through type-II vectorial interaction. By employing an averaging approach based on asymptotic expansion theory, we show that the dynamics of soliton propagation in the grating and their stability properties are strongly influenced by induced Kerr-like nonlinearities. Finally, through extensive numerical simulations, we verify the validity of our theoretical predictions.
