The spatial rogue waves (RWs) generated by a wide Gaussian beam in a saturated nonlinear system are experimentally observed. Our observations show that RWs are most likely to occur when Gaussian light evolves to the critical state of filament splitting, and then the probability of RWs decreases with voltage fluctuations. The occurrence probability of RWs after splitting is related to the nonlinear breathing phenomenon of optical filament, and the statistics of RWs satisfy the long-tailed L-shaped distribution. The experiment proves that the presence of high-frequency components and the aggregation of low-frequency components can serve as a prerequisite for the occurrence of extreme events (EEs).

实验上观测了贝塞尔光束在饱和非线性介质中的呼吸传输行为,出射光斑的时间演化过程验证了其传播存在呼吸现象。结合怪波形成的线性几何会聚理论和非线性诱导理论,进一步通过实验设计,使具有一定间隔的两束贝塞尔光束以一定夹角入射,当两个贝塞尔呼吸子在出射面碰撞时,可获得一个巨峰,该巨峰的峰值能量为线性情况下的3.1倍。此光斑的高峰值特性和反相位边锋的分布特性与怪波的基本特性吻合。相应的数值模拟结果与实验结果也表现出很好的一致性。研究结果为光怪波的形成提供了一种有效的线性和非线性相结合的设计方法,对海洋怪波的研究有一定的借鉴意义。
