摘要
We investigated the influence of the structural defect placed inside uniform photonic lattice on existence and dynamics of dark spatially localized defect modes. Depending on the strength of the defect and considering the lattice with defocusing saturable nonlinearity, we found two different types of dark solutions to exist. Their stability and dynamical properties are shown to be affected by the defect as well. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2013
