title = "Toward nonlinear magneto-optics: Collapse detuning via magnetically adjustable linear and circular birefringences",
abstract = "We present the possibility of light beam propagation control in a Kerr nonlinear magneto-optic medium through the efficient management of linear and circular birefringences. We show numerically that the joint birefringences, achieved through the combined use of the Cotton-Mouton and Faraday effects, can effectively accelerate, postpone or even arrest the nonlinear collapse (for a fixed value of the optical power). We also present the experimental observation of collapse tuning in a bulk Yttrium Iron Garnet (YIG) crystal placed in an external magnetic field. The obtained results offer new possibilities towards the use of magneto-optic effects for controlling various nonlinear phenomena.",
